of Selena Frost hitting Vixen Cain with the Defying Gravity at Supreme
Saturday: Just Desserts.
“The leading force in sports and
entertainment today....”
MAIN SHOW:
The opening bars of “The Old
Me” by Memphis May Fire play as the Breakdown logo flies across the screen.
I'm thinking about the old me
'Cause I've been feeling empty
I never used to be so dead inside
Shots of Syren
celebrating with the World Championship start before we see a shot of the
Beauty Factory standing tall in the ring. Following this is Aaron Blackbourne hitting the Unchained Creativity on an
opponent. Katie Steward hitting the Off with her Head
on Giovanni Aries at Retribution 2018 follows.
I think I lost my memory
I can't remember carefree
And all my days turn into fight or flight
Owen Cruze
hitting the Cruze Stomp on an opponent follows before
we see Selena Frost hitting the Glass Shard on Bree Lancaster. Bree Lancaster
hitting the Classifier on Aaron Blackbourne follows
before we see Scarlet Grey walking to the ring.
I wanna
get back, tell me how to get back
I wanna get back, tell me how to get back
Kennedy Street hitting Dante McCaffery with the Touch of Class follows before we see
James Evans and Angelica Jones holding the SCW World Tag Team Championship.
Marie Jones standing on the ropes follows before we see Kandis
swiveling her hips as part of her entrance. Derek Adonis holding up a copy of
the KABLAMA Sutra follows.
Say it again, say it again,
tell me what I wanna hear
Tell me that I'm gonna be fine and there's nothing
left to fear
'Cause I've been losing sleep (losing sleep)
Trying to get back to who I used to be
Where is the old me?
Chris Cannon covering Kennedy
Street and Owen Cruze follows before we see a shot of
Cassidy Carter dancing on her way to the ring, and then a shot of Regan Street
and Datura swinging chairs at one another. The Breakdown logo comes up on the
screen and remains on it for a few moments.
We then cut to a live shot of
the inside of the Pit in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The cameras pan across the
crowd for a few moments.
Sharper: “Welcome to the Pit
and we are ten days removed from Tabula Rasa! A night where Chris Cannon
accepted a countout win from Kennedy Street, Sienna
Swann retained the World Championship, Giovanni Aries vandalized the US
Championship-“
Knots: “But tonight, we’ll get
to the bottom of one big thing – who attacked Mr. D?
He’s going to be here tonight and we’re going to get answers!”
We then cut to ringside.
Sharper: “I’m Adam Sharper,
he’s Jonathan Knots. That’s right, we hope we’ll get
answers tonight. Not just that, but we expect to hear what may await Syren. Abigail Lindsay attacked her at Tabula Rasa. Well, Syren seemed to be fine, not suffering any injury. Casting doubt.”
Knots: “She’s faking it!”
Sharper: “A lot on the agenda
tonight.”
Ace Marshall vs. Autumn Valentine
A countdown starts on the big
screen in fast progression from five to one before "Adrenalize" hits
the speakers and the spotlights start to spin and focus in on the stage. The
fans erupt in mixed reactions as on stage Ace Marshall steps out with Oakley
shades and a black reflective jacket. Cassidy Carter comes out to join him by
his side.
ADRENALIZE ME
He pauses before raises his arms up for the crowd as strobe lights break out
throughout the arena for the crowd in different shades of red, blue and green
in rapid succession. Smoke erupts from underneath them and along the ramp way.
He snaps his fingers and bobs his head before pointing out to the crowd.
Cassidy smiles broadly while stepping in a rhythm around the stage to match the
beat.
Phillips: “The opening contest tonight on Breakdown is scheduled for onefall and has a fifteen minute time limit. First, making
his way to the ring, from Houston, Texas, accompanied by Cassidy Carter, The
Master of the Universe Freddy Mercury was referring to in that song, Ace
Marshall!”
The two make their way down the ramp. Reaching the ring Ace slides in before
standing up and running his hands through his hair, singing along with the
song. Cassidy climbs up on to the apron. Standing along it she raises her head
up to the rafters while leaning fully into the top rope. She sways her hips seductively before flipping over it, landing
inside the ring on her feet before turning and throwing her arms up and walking
toward the center of the ring just as Ace makes his way to the corner. He
climbs up it before looking out into the crowd while thrusting an arm up.
Dropping down after a moment he turns his back to the crowd before removing his
jacket and shades. He sets them to the side of the apron for an official to
grab as he awaits his opponent.
Sharper: “We start Breakdown
with the return to the ring of Ace Marshall after several months off.”
Knots: “He already was getting
involved at Tabula Rasa and there’s some unfinished business there. Christy
Matthews won. Alexander Crowe got involved!”
Sharper: “And Ace and Cassidy
are here together and about to face Autumn Valentine here tonight.”
The lights dim slightly and
the spotlights point down at the stage as the fans quieten in expectation. A
woman whispering can be heard across the PA system.
“Don’t bless me father, for I have sinned...”
“Miss Nothing” by The Pretty Reckless begins playing across the PA system as
the fans boo. After a few seconds Autumn Valentine walks out onto the stage
with a smile on her face, standing in the middle of the spotlights for a moment
before spinning around and holding out her arms downward, revealing the words
“DARK FANTASY” on the back of her ring jacket.
Sinfully Seductive
Captivatingly Corrupt
Dark Fantasy
Phillips: “And his opponent,
accompanied by Ryan Watson, from Memphis, Tennessee, she is Miss Nothing,
Autumn Valentine!”
Autumn spins back around, seemingly enjoying the negative crowd reaction. She
stands for a moment before looking back over her shoulder. The fans booing gets louder as she’s joined on the stage by Ryan
Watson. Watson holds her hand as the two of them head to the ring. Once at
ringside Autumn jumps up on the ring entrance as Ryan
pulls himself up using the bottom rope. He then stands and holds down the
middle rope for her to enter. The fans boo louder as Autumn
now ascends the ropes in the corner, standing on the middle rope once again
soaking in their reaction. She flips back out of the corner, spinning around
and landing on her feet. She then removes her jacket, handing it to Ryan who
remains on the apron. Ryan jumps down, holding onto her jacket as Autumn walks to the corner, sitting down in the corner and
talking with her manager at ringside as he stands outside the ring.
Sharper: “Autumn Valentine
firmly back in tight with Dark Fantasy, even if they all denied it. The
connections to Katya put them all on the same side.”
Knots: “Well it’s another
situation for Ace and Cassidy. They have to deal with Autumn
and someone on the floor in Ryan Watson.”
The bell sounds. Ace just
stretches out a bit, using the ropes as Autumn looks
at him. Ace and Autumn then watch one another before
both lunging and locking up. Autumn looks a bit confused before she pushes Ace
back. Ace then falls back, landing on his back and rolling through. He shakes
his head before tapping the side of his head and then getting up and kicking
her in the ribs. He shrugs. He then wrenches her arm and pulls her into a
forearm. She hits the mat.
Sharper: “Ace figured it out.”
Knots: “The doorknob acting
like he’s forgetting how to compete!”
Autumn gets up and Ace grabs
her and whips her into the ropes. He bounces off and Autumn
ducks a clothesline. Ace turns and Autumn bounces off
and Ace hits a hip toss. She rolls over and gets up and Ace pushes her into the
ropes and then whips her across again. Autumn bounces off and Ace goes to grab
her, but Autumn slides between his legs. Ace stops
forward and turns around and Autumn hits a straight
kick to the ribs before a boot to the head. Ace falls to his knees. The crowd
boos. Ace starts to get up and Autumn hits an axe kick
to the back of Ace’s head. He drops to the mat. Autumn goes for the pin.
1!
2!
Ace kicks out. Autumn then
gets up as Ryan looks on, cheering on Autumn. Ace
turns and Autumn clubs him in the back and then again
before hitting a Russian leg sweep. She gets up and turns and exits to the
apron. She then climbs up to the top rope. The crowd boos. Ace turns and looks
up. He gets up and Autumn jumps off. Ace ducks and
steps forward. Autumn lands on her feet and rolls through. She turns and runs
at Ace and Ace scoops her up and hits a tilt-a-whirl into a front suplex slam. The crowd ohs.
Sharper: “Driven chest first
into the mat. Just scooped her up and dropped her.”
Knots: “Effective. That’s for
sure.”
Ace rolls her over and hooks
the leg.
1!
2!
Autumn kicks out. Ace gets up
and turns and grabs Autumn. He then scoops her up and
drops her. Ace then rolls over and turns, exiting to the apron. He climbs up to
the top rope. Ryan hops up and Ace kicks at him. Ryan hops down as Cassidy
walks around the ring. She pulls off her shoe.
Cassidy: “Do that again and
I’ll impale you with this thing!”
Ryan: “That dunnit have a sharp point doll.”
Cassidy: “I’ll find one!”
Ryan nods and backs off.
Ryan: “Trust ya onit”
Ace however is distracted long
enough as Autumn falls into the ropes. Ace lands hard.
Autumn the grabs him by the head and pulling him out and just driving him down
face first into the mat. The crowd ohs.
Sharper: “Cassidy threatening
Ryan. That may keep him at bay.”
Knots: “May not matter as Ace
found the mat from the top rope!”
Ace slowly stirs and Autumn dropkicks him back down. She goes for the pin.
1!

Ace gets his shoulder up. He
turns and Autumn rolls off. She gets up and watches
him. Ace grabs at the ropes and turns around and Autumn
kicks him in the ribs. She sets up for the Pink Whisper, but Ace spins out and
then moves back in before hoisting her up and hitting an Olympic Slam. The
crowd cheers. Autumn rolls over as Ace starts to get up. He then scoops her up
and hits a backbreaker. He goes for the pin.
1!
2!
Autumn gets her shoulder up.
Ace rolls off. He then gets up and mockingly tells her to get up.
Sharper: “Two count. Autumn still down.”
Knots: “Ace is just having fun
now.”
Sharper: “Why not? He’s back
in the ring. Been a few months of just watching his wife Cassidy have all the
fun.”
Knots: “Yeah, we’ll call it
fun. Definitely is that.”
Autumn rolls over as Ace walks
over and grabs her. Autumn however counters with a jawbreaker. Ace falls to a
knee. Autumn gets up and kicks him in the ribs and forearms him in the jaw. She
turns and runs into the ropes. She bounces off and right past Ace. She then
jumps to the middle rope and dives back with a kick. Ace ducks. Autumn lands on
her feet and Ace grabs her from behind, locking in the Pagliacci.
The crowd roars. Ace pulls back as Autumn reaches
around. Ace however hooks her leg and forces her down to the mat, locking in
the leg scissors. The crowd cheers.
Sharper: “Ace locks in the Pagliacci!”
Knots: “Autumn has nowhere to
go!”
Autumn starts to fade and she
then taps on his arm. The crowd roars and the bell sounds. Ace lets go and
pushes her over.
Phillips: “Here is your
winner, via submission, Ace Marshall!”
Ace gets up and has his arm raised. Cassidy enters the ring and then looks at Autumn stomping her in the arm and then again. She rolls out
of the ring. Cassidy steps forward.
Cassidy: “Tell Christy! Tell
Dark Fantasy, you just started something big!”
The crowd roars as Ryan pulls Autumn away. She coughs a bit as she walks around with Ryan.
Ace and Cassidy back up and celebrate in the ring.
Sharper: “Ace Marshall
returning successfully! But Cassidy with a parting shot.”
Knots: “Looks like they aint friends anymore! Dark Fantasy and
Ace and Cassidy very different than last year!”
Sharper: “No challenges for
Taking Hold of the Flame this year I guess.”
Knots: “Thank God! I’m still
scarred.”
Autumn and Ryan walk up the rampway toward the back as we then see Dean Black and Sasha
walk out from the back. Autumn and Ryan take a few steps as Ace’s music plays.
The camera gets in close to pick up what they’re saying.
Sasha: “Autumn…”
Ryan: “Ey.
She just lost a match. It can wait.”
Sasha: “No it can’t. Syren.
You have a way to get a hold of her. I’m done. After Tabula Rasa, the ruse is
over. She wants to have any right to the World Title, you can call her and tell
her next week, in Mexico City, she’s coming to Breakdown and she can get tested
by our doctors at the arena.”
Autumn: “Look. I’m not
allied-“
Sasha: “I’m not in the mood
for it. You have a way to contact her. You pass it along.”
Autumn turns to Ryan.
Ryan: “Fine. We be yer messenger.”
The crowd roars as Ace and
Cassidy start to exit the ring and head up the rampway
too.
Sasha: “And is my sister here.
I know you’re in tight with her.”
Autumn just looks at her.
Autumn: “Someone needs to make
sure you don’t screw up.”
Sasha: “Great.”
Autumn and Ryan go to leave,
but Ace and Cassidy walk in.
Ace: “And remember to tell Syren, we say hi!”
Autumn pulls away as Ryan
steps between them. The crowd roars assuming something more will happen. Ace just smiles. Cassidy doesn’t, just glaring at them.
Cassidy: “Maybe let Crowe
loose. I can make him fit in better.”
Ace smirks as Autumn and Ryan walk away.
Sharper: “Sasha giving Autumn a message. Syren needs to
get checked out by doctors or lose her right to the World Title!”
Knots: “Abigail Lindsay with a
big assist there! And then Cassidy and Ace want anyone from Dark Fantasy! They
may be waiting next week if they show up!”
Sharper: “And we’re just
starting here tonight!”
Sasha and Dean watch, along
with Ace and Cassidy, Autumn and Ryan head to the
back. Ace asks for a high five from Sasha as she turns and heads off with Dean
as Cassidy slaps it down and we cut away.
COMMERCIALS
Backstage, we open up to see
Autumn Valentine storming into her locker room. Ryan Watson walks after her. We
hear someone snap at him.
Ryan: “Oy! Just
takin’ care of some business. Can get back ta cleanin’ ya holes after!”
Autumn grabs her cellphone out
of her gearbag. She then looks at it, running her
finger over it before placing it to her ear, clearly making a call. She looks
around, clearly waiting for an answer. She then nods.
Autumn: “Yeah, you watching?”
Autumn pauses.
Autumn: “Your move I guess. I
don’t care for being in the middle of it and ambushed like that……Yeah, well,
get better.”
Autumn hangs up.
Ryan: “Ya
tell Syren?”
Autumn: “Yeah. Now she can
figure out how to deal with it.”
Ryan: “Make sense.”
Ryan then turns.
Ryan: “Okay, ya can get back to makin’ sure ya scrub ya netherregions!”
Ryan turns and heads off as Autumn shakes her head.
The scene shifts to the SCW
interview area. Jessica Winters stands by.
Jessica: “Jessica Winters here
and I was scheduled to speak to James Evans tonight,
but instead, I’m being joined by his tag team partner, Angelica Jones.”
Angelica Jones walks into
view, holding her SCW World Tag Team Championship over her shoulder.
Jessica: “Angelica, can you
help me out here? James Evans lost it in the steel cage match, showing again
that aggressive side. A lot of people concerned.”
Angelica: “And a lot of people
should be. He wasn’t the only one who lost it that night.”
Jessica: “The Dragon you
mean?”
Angelica: “It was not a good
night for either of us. Yeah, we walked out the World Tag Team Champions and
trust me, I’m not feeling sorry for Bree or Andrew. If
anyone deserved to have to deal with what was unleashed, they were a great
target. But we both failed in our mission. In what we said defined us in our
respective returns…Redemption. We failed that.”
Angelica pauses.
Angelica: “So for James, I
talked to him earlier. He’s not okay. SCW needs to do something.”
Jessica: “And for you?”
Angelica sighs.
Angelica: “Bree better hope I
have a better day.”
The crowd roars. Jessica watches
as Angelica leaves off camera. We then cut back to the announce position.
Knots: “Bree better be
careful. Angelica Jones made it clear that she unleashed the Dragon and Bree
already is calling them crazies and a whole bunch of things. She’s asking to
get spanked tonight.”
Sharper: “We will find out. Plenty more also to find out. Is Syren
going to respond tonight. But more importantly, we
know Mr. D will be here to confront his alleged attacker and we know Sienna
Swann will speak tonight.”
Knots: “What I want to know if
that coward Chris Cannon will show his face? I mean this is someone we used to
call Superman. I didn’t realize that when Blake Mason dropped him on his head,
his balls popped off too. It would explain a lot. Why he needed months to get
his damn closure? Why he couldn’t get the job done when he had the chance. Why
he had to practically take advantage of Blake Mason’s kindness,
and I get it, that’s a stretch. I never was Blake’s friend, but screw it. Chris
brutalized him and then did the same against Ikiro
Yoshida and I get it, Ikiro’s lips are firmly planted
on Sienna’s ass, but when you attacked Kennedy, accident or not, I don’t care.
Fine, I’ll give it to you. It was an accident. Then you apologize you pathetic
pile of crap! At least people like James have a certifiable illness. They’re
getting treatment. They’re trying to be good people. You! You’re throwing it
away. For what? Because you suck?
Because you were castrated at Under Attack a couple of years back? I don’t
know. I don’t care. But you’re better than that!”
Sharper just looks at Knots as
Knots straightens his jacket.
Sharper: “You good now?”
Knots: “Yeah…sorry. But
someone needs to call him out for what he is!”
Sharper: “Well you cool down
there. Hard to switch to this, but we announced on social media that we would
have a world exclusive-“
Knots: “We found Cannon’s
genitals? Were they found dumped in one of the production truck gas tanks?”
Sharper just looks at Knots
again.
Knots: “What?! Trying to be ha-ha now.”
Sharper: “Alright….well,
uh…Arnold Braunschweiger has been expanding his
horizons and SCW is a great supporter of him and the dependables
and with Madison Chase, they filmed a short film – AHHHHs If: A Moment In Time.”
The Breakdown logo comes up on
the screen.
Violins can be heard as we see a
shot of Maddie Chase sitting at the bar, wearing a red dress, playing with her
drink, what appears to be a martini. She turns, the plunging neckline of the
dress becoming evident, but filmed in such a way to appear classy. We then see
a suited, clean shaven brunette male walk over and sit down next to her.
Maddie: “Fernando. Where did you
go?”
Fernando: “Don’t worry about
that. Just a late business call. But I had to return
to your beautiful figure.”
Maddie then swoons, moving
toward him, before a harsh cut shows her back at the stool, clearing her
throat.
Maddie: “You treat me too well.”
Fernando: “Well how about we
return back to my room. We discuss other ways I could treat you well.”
Maddie: “As if!”
Maddie then steps up, when
suddenly, the door bursts open and Arnold Braunschweiger,
wearing a tailored suit, with tails, and complete with a boutonniere, as if he
just attended a wedding.
Maddie: “Ahhhh!”
Fernando: “You!”
Arnold: “It’s t-ah-ime for your own red wedding.”
Arnold then produces a shotgun.
We don’t know from where and shoots Fernando. He goes up and over the bar and
behind. Arnold turns to Maddie. She looks at Fernando before turning back and
scoffs.
Maddie: “As if!”
She storms out.
Arnold: “Maddie! Wahh-ait!”
We cut to another shot to see
Maddie Chase walking home, wrapping her arms around herself as she walks down
the street. Snow starts to fall and she looks up. She then smiles. We then
randomly see, for some reason, a blonde, clean-shave, well-dressed man walk
over and place his jacket over Maddie’s shoulders.
Maddie: “Oh a gentleman. As if!”
Man: “My name is Gunther Rammstein the Third. A cold night for a
walk without a coat.”
Maddie: “Oh…just my date was
murdered in the bar.”
Gunther’s charm demeanour
suddenly disappears.
Gunther: “Ah…that’s
horrible…what…are you okay? What happened?”
Maddie: “Oh yeah. Just my
friend-“
We hear the sound of a grenade
clip being pulled and for some reason, Arnold Braunschweiger stands in front of Gunther and Maddie.
Gunther’s eyes widen.
Arnold: “Du hast mich foolish man!”
He throws the grenade and Maddie
just calmly steps off to the side, holding her hand to her forehead, as if to
show distraught, as the explosion goes off and a shoe flies across the screen.
Maddie then turns to Arnold.
Maddie: “Where are the good men?
Couldn’t he have been one of them?”
Maddie storms off as Arnold
looks at him.
Arnold: “Exactly.”
The music changes to a calm
classical piano arrangement as we cut to see Maddie, still wearing the jacket,
and the dress, arriving at her apartment building, an unnecessarily opulent
location. She’s then stopped by another man wearing a suit, but also
wearing a mask, with “Not Them” written on the top.
Not Them: “Maddie! You are here!
I have come to sweep you off your feet, take you to your room, and give you an
explosive evening of passion and carnality!”
Maddie: “Oh well then. Let’s
go!”
Maddie jumps into his arms.
Arnold: “Ma-AHHHH-ddie! Noooooo!”
Maddie looks around as we see
Arnold jump off the hood of an SUV at the street, clear at least ten stairs and
tackle NOT THEM down as Maddie safely hops down and rolls out of the way, in a
move that clearly defies physics. Arnold then looks at him and pulls the mask
off, revealing a mask that says “ACTUALLY THEM!”
Arnold: “I knew it!”
Actually Them kicks Arnold back
before getting up and spinning around holding a knife to Maddie’s throat.
Actually Them:
“Move and I kill her!”
Maddie looks at Arnold, a bit
concerned, before becoming calm. She then suddenly emits fire all over her body
and Actually Them steps back, yelling in pain as he
tries to tap out flames.
Maddie: “Surprise! I’m a
superhero!”
Arnold: “May the DEATH be will you!”
Arnold then pulls out a beam
saber (totally not a light saber) and swipes at Actually
Them killing him. We also notice for some reason, Arnold now is wearing a
hooded robe.
Arnold: “Come Young Padaw-AH-n…I will sho-AH-w you
how to identify THEM so the only explosive eve-AH-nings
you h-AH-ve are your c-AH-ll.”
Maddie: “As if!”
Maddie and Arnold then walk into
the apartment as the camera pans back, as the piano classical music turns into
a whole orchestra as a circle fades from the edges onto Maddie and Arnold with
“Happily Ever After until Next Time!” before cutting to black.
The credits roll.

As the classic music fades, we
just hear an audible “KABLAM!” as the KABLAM Studios logo comes up, followed by
SCW Studios and then Dependable Films.
We then cut to a postcredits scene. We then see Maddie Chase sit up, a sheet
covering her chest, but selectively placed to show her legs, her shoulders and
her head. There’s a random chiselled man next to her, completely naked, and we
would see his bare ass if it wasn’t pixelated. We then see the various THEM
individuals from the film, naked as well, the areas inappropriate for the time
slot pixelated. Maddie looks around.
Maddie: “As if! I see dead
THEMs!”
The scene ends abruptly.
The crowd roars as we return
to a live shot as the camera pans across the crowd.
Knots: “Well, it’s a movie!”
Sharper: “Arnold and Maddie
say it should get Oscar buzz.”
Knots: “Sure. I just hope it’s
not the Grouch!”
Sharper: “That was the
worldwide exclusive debut, Cookie Dreams getting in the director’s chair.”
Knots: “I can tell you which
parts she was in favour of!”
Sharper: “And next, we’ll see
tag action. Peyton Rice and John Goddard look to rebound from a loss at Tabula
Rasa to face Team Desire 2.0.”
Just then, we abruptly cut to
London and Paris standing backstage outside of their locker room. LEO stands in
the background.
London: “Sorry for the
interruption.”
Paris: “Who are we kidding?”
London: “You should be blessed
by this. Finally things have been almost righted.”
Paris: “Back as number one
contenders to the SCW World Tag Team Championship. You want to watch tag
wrestling, that’s with us.”
London: “And we will get our
shot soon enough. It’s guaranteed. No weaseling out of this.”
Paris: “But if you want to
watch others who pale in comparison to us, even ones trained by not-so-Perfect
Tens…”
London: “Then stay tuned. They
can fight over second best.”
Paris: “Bring on the crazies. Actually better yet. Just lock them up. Do what you
should’ve done.”
London: “They shouldn’t be in
the right with us.”
Paris: “Just right things
completely.”
London: “Your next Tag Champs
are right here. And we’re beautiful!”
Paris: “She said it. We mean
it.”
The crowd boos as Paris and
London look at the screen as the scene fades to black.
COMMERCIALS
Backstage, we see Sasha
walking down one of the hallways and she stops as Katya turns to her. She turns
to Scarlet Grey and Ruby Amarant who stands with her.
Katya: “You know what to do.”
Ruby: “Don’t worry. Scarlet
will have some fun.”
Scarlet: “And it’s just the
start.”
Ruby and Scarlet head off as
Katya turns to Sasha.
Sasha: “I don’t like the sound
of any of that.”
Katya: “Don’t have to. You’re
in charge. Go stop them then.”
Sasha just shakes her head.
Katya: “So are you going to
just brood there. You know why I’m here. Someone needs to make sure this goes
the way it should.”
Sasha: “You can act concerned
all you want about dad.”
Katya: “I am concerned. Just
because you don’t like me, doesn’t mean I have an issue with him. Outside of
the fact I should be running things.”
Sasha: “Thank God you’re not.
I’m just here instead to tell you to stay out of the way. I’m not going to tell
you to go. But we’ve got this handled.”
Katya: “Just like you did with
Syren? You know they’re going to try something.”
Sasha: “Let them.”
Sasha walks off as Katya
glares at her sister and we cut away.
Peyton Rice & John Goddard vs.
Gigi & Maddy Steward
“Supreme” plays throughout the
arena as the stage and video screen goes dark. Gigi’s video plays on the screen
and she steps out on to the stage wearing a black
leather with tiny metal spikes on it and also a bandana covering her face. She
walks up to the center of the stage and stretches her arms out embracing the
fans support for her. The camera changes as it switches to the stage entrance
where “That Girl’s a Genius” blasts through the arena, Madison walks out dress
in her dark black ring attire and wearing a steampunk white rabbit mask. She
stops on the stage and feeds off the crowd’s energy that gets her pumped. They
begin to march to the ring walking with a purpose as Maddie and Gigi Steward,
they high five, hug each other. Katie Steward then walks out, The crowd cheers and boos. She leads them down the ramp as
they head to the ring soaking up the reaction before hopping into the apron and
pointing the crowd before flipping over the top rope as the crowd roars, some
boo. Gigi hops on the middle ropes and throws out her own hand sign to the
fans. She then rips off the bandana and tosses it into the crowd. Gigi hops off
the ropes and takes off her jacket setting it aside for ring crew to pick up
while Madison sliding in. Katie claps and tells the referee to back off.
Phillips: The Following contest is a tag team match scheduled for one fall!
Introducing from Los Angeles, Ca. Gigi and Maddie Steward... Team
Desire 2.0!"
The crowd roars, many boo as Madison sliding in and picks herself up and takes
off her black ring coat and gets ready for the match as Maddie takes off her
jacket and ruffles her hair a little, standing in the corner and both awaiting
for the match to begin As Katie walks outside to the corner…..
Sharper: “Team Desire 2.0 is here to make a statement and Katie Steward is now
with them, what does that mean?”
Knots: “It means that these two finally have decided to get serious. With the
Goddess in their corner, they will be a lot more dangerous and other teams
better watch out.”
The arena is plunged into total darkness causing the crowd to buzz, the
questions are answered when the tron above the stage
illuminates while the sound of wind blowing over the P.A System. The picture on
the screen is that of the desert sand, but it’s not long before we hear the
rattling sound of a curled-up snake... The footage starts to pan upwards to
reveal more of the desert, but the focus is on the snake slithering towards the
screen, the Rattlesnake moves closer and closer and then wastes no time at all
before striking at the screen...
Then as if on cue Johnny Cash’s “God’s Gonna Cut you
Down” hits over the P. A System, while the music begins to build upwards with
the guitar strumming away a smoke like fog begins to haze its way onto the
stage as the lights shift in colour to a fiery amber… With it a shadowy figure
begins to casually walk out among the Smokey haze to reveal Goddard himself
dressed in his leather trench coat, Stetson hat and bandanna over his face...
Dishevelled voice: “Ladies and Gentlemen, Ya’ll heard the whispers, ya’ll listened
to the tales but allow us to inform ya that “The
Legend is Very Real...” Hailing from the wastelands of Texas, better known as
Tombstone… he weighs in tonight at one-hundred and ninety-seven pounds...
He is “THE HELLBILLY” … JOHN GODDARD!!”
The crowd’s reaction is incredibly mixed as he stands on the stage looking out
from under his hat, he then removes the bandanna and
cracks a smile before nodding and walking down to the ring with a confidence of
one like himself. Fans reach out to touch him, but he pays them no mind if the manage to do just
that. After rolling into the ring he rises to one knee and looks out to
the crowd again before pulling himself up using the ropes before walking over
to a corner and removing his jacket before standing on the second corner and
nodding one more time.
Sharper: “A very scary man in John Goddard who has taken a liking to Peyton Rice,
why?”
Knots: “Look at her Sharper! Who wouldn’t take a liking to her? It’s creepy.”
The arena goes dark before a lone spotlight shines on the entrance,
suddenly the opening beats to “All The Days" by Mammoth play throughout
the arena as the beautiful Peyton Rice walks out in wrestling gear and jacket. Her long dark blonde hair hanging down. She looks around at
the crowd before getting to one knee and making a line across the entrance, she crosses her arms and lowers her head for a
moment before standing up and pointing to the ring as the crowd roars.
With her gorgeous and contagious smile, Peyton starts to walk to the ring,
stopping and pulling off some high fiving the fans and taking selfies with
them. She continues to head to the ring soaking up the reaction before hopping
into the apron and pointing the crowd before flipping over the top rope as the
crowd roars and stepping on the second rope, raising her arms and looking up,
she then thanks the fans while being announced….
Phillips: “His partner, she hails from Glendale, Arizona! Weighing in at 115
pounds, here is “Not Another Pretty Face”, Peyton
Rice!”
The crowd roars as she flips from the second rope on to her feet and does a
cartwheel. She takes off her jacket and ruffles her hair a little, standing in
the corner and awaiting for the match to begin…..
Sharper: “The fans, the roster, anyone that is around
this wonderful young woman simply adores her. She loves the spirt of wrestling
and shows it every day, I am confident this young lady is going to break out
very soon.”
Knots: “She’s a former Emerge Champion, never lost the belt. She may break out
tonight.”
Peyton looks over at Goddard who nods, she starts the match with Gigi, Katie claps on the outside. The referee calls for the bell as
the two circle the ring before shaking hands, the crowd cheers. They lock up, Peyton pushes Gigi to the ropes and breaks clean. Gigi
nods, circles again and they lock up one more time, Gigi this time pushes her
toward the ropes, she goes to break cleanly but kicks Peyton, the crowd boos,
she kicks her again, Irish Whipping Pey to the ropes
but the blinding speed of Rice, she ducks a clothesline and springboards off
the ropes into a stunner, the crowd roars as Gigi flies off her feet and
crashes on the mats, Peyton quickly runs and moonsaults
on her for the pin….
1!

3… No!
Madison Breaks It up!
Sharper: “Did you see how fast she was!? Madison had to save the match as this
could have been over. Gigi decided not to break clean and Peyton took exception.
She was not happy about Tabula Rasa and what happened there, but she came
tonight to prove a point.”
Knots: “She is quick as a hiccup…. I’m glad Kennedy is not fast.”
Sharper: “I’m not even going to touch that.”
Peyton picks up Gigi and throws her into their corner. She hops on Gig and tags
Goddard, monkey Flipping Gigi over right into the waiting arms of Goddard who
Belly to Belly suplexes her. Gigi quickly tags as
Madison looks like she doesn’t want to enter the ring. Katie yells at her to get
in. Maddie jumps in and runs after Goddard who hip tosses Madison. She gets up
and he scoops her up for a slam, Madison rolls out of the ring but Goddard
catches her, he picks her up and whips her into he turnbuckle, charging in but she moves out of the
way. Goddard crashes into the corner, stumbling back as Maddie jumps to the
second rope and comes off with a flying bodypress,
Goddard catches her and he throws Madison into her own corner where she quickly
tags in Gigi….
She yells at Goddard to get away. He smirks and looks over at Peyton who asks
for the tag, He nods and tags in Peyton, the crowd cheers. Peyton jumps in the
ring, her and Gigi lock up, Peyton arm drags her, Gigi
gets up, Peyton arm drags her again into an armbar,
Gigi slams the mats in frustration. Gigi quickly gets to her feet, she strikes
Peyton a few times before pushing herself off, Peyton stumbles back, Gigi goes
for a reverse spinning kick, Peyton ducks and flows through into a School Girl
into the pin attempt….

No, Kick Out by Gigi!
Peyton kips up but Gigi grabs her by the hair and slams her back into the mats,
she drops down on top of the stunned Peyton for the quick cover…

Peyton Kicks Out!
Goddard yells encouragement to Peyton as she gets up, Gigi sets her up for a suplex but Peyton rolls behind her, she rolls up Gigi up
for the pin….

Gigi Kicks Out!
Gigi gets up and is met by a series of forearms, Peyton throws a flurry as the
crowd roars. Peyton then locks Gigi up in a front face lock, she then runs up
the ropes but Katie quickly grabs the ropes and pulls them from under Peyton,
she falls back hard on the mats and Gigi tags in Maddie who climbs the ropes
and hit s a Moonsault on Peyton for the cover…
1!
2!
3.. No!
Peyton gets her shoulder up!
Sharper: “Katie Steward now getting involved. She obviously sees that Peyton
and Goddard are huge threats and wants to do whatever it takes to help her two
girls out. She just wrestled Peyton at the PPV, she knows how determined this
young woman is.”
Knots: “True statement but come on, how long did we think Katie was going to
stand out there without doing anything? That’s like saying Chris Cannon is
brave…. He’s not.”
Goddard almost came to the ring, Peyton gets up as Maddie kicks her a few
times, locking her into a Belly to belly but Peyton hangs on, she then belly to
belly Madison instead, she quickly hooks the leg as the crowd cheers….

Kick Out by Maddie.
Peyton knows she has to tag, she tries but Gigi comes out and grabs her from
behind, Peyton elbows Gigi and then Maddie, then turns around and Hurricarana’s Gigi into Madison as the crowd roars. The
young Peyton looks to the corner and dives, making the hot tag, the crowd roars
as Goddard comes in, Maddie and Gigi both attack him but he blocks Madison and
hits her, then he strikes Gigi, Katie gets on the apron and yells, Goddard
tries to take a swing but she drops to the floor, that is where Madison hits a backcraker on John and goes for the cover…

Goddard Kicks Out!
The referee tries to get Gigi out of the ring, she argues as does Katie about
Goddard going after her and the way he smells. Peyton had enough, Katie doesn’t
even see Peyton running across the ring with a suicide, but she feigns it,
Katie screams thinking she’s about to get hit with the suicide dive but instead
Peyton runs and dropkicks Gigi who rolls out of the ring. Maddie waits until
Goddard gets up, she locks him into a DDT but he
pushes her off, running with a boot but Maddie ducks and missing, he turns
around and she hits a Pele Kick, Goddard drops to one knee, Maddie then runs
against the ropes with a basement dropkick. Meanwhile Gigi gets up off the
floor, Peyton runs across the mats and cannonballs her, the crowd roars.
Sharper: “Peyton just took out Gigi! Maddie though as Goddard down and she is
climbing the top rope! Peyton psyched us all out when she tried to go after
Katie but this could cost them. Team Desire 2.0 is showing how bratty and
mischievous they are!”
Knots: “Maddie is going for her Frog Splash, Peyton and Goddard aren’t a usual
tag team, it’s showing!”
Maddie gets up on the top rope and dives off with the Frog Splash but at the
last second, Goddard gets his knees up, Maddie buckles over. He quickly gets
up, grabs Maddie and hits A Cross To Bear. The crowd
roars, he tags in Peyton who climbs the top rope….
Sharper: “Madison is down, Goddard hit the crucifix
driver!
Knots: “Peyton is going to the top, we have seen this before…Gigi is still
down, Katie is screaming!”
Peyton jumps on the top rope quickly and lands the Pretty girl Drop! The
Corkscrew Shooting Star Press lands it’s mark as the
crowd roars, Peyton hooks the leg for the cover…

The bell rings as Peyton hops up and jumps into Goddard’s arms. “All My Life”
by Mammoth starts to play throughout the arena while Katie drags Maddie out of
the ring with the help of Gigi…
Phillips: “Here is your winner….. the team of Peyton
rice and John Goddard!”
The crowd roars as Peyton smiles, looking around before high fiving John
Goddard. The Stewards make their way toward the back.
Knots: “A thing of beauty, Peyton was too quick, Goddard too ugly, a perfect
pair no pun intended and they beat Team desire 2.0 here tonight even with Katie
screaming bloody murder.”
Sharper: “Big win for both as they needed to get back on track after the PPV, a
huge win and what is next?”
Knots: “Adam Allocco?”
Sharper: Don’t say his name, he might appear.”
Knots: “True, my bad.”
Peyton and Goddard continue to celebrate in the ring as the Stewards make their
way toward the back…
The camera switches to a
backstage, closed door, which opens. Immediately, out steps the SCW United
States Champion, Selena Frost. The fans cheer loudly as the Snow Queen steps
out of her change room, though keeps her focus on the inside. On her shoulder
is the United States Championship, still dented and missing a few plates.
Sharper: “The United States Champion, Selena Frost – and look what she has on
her shoulder.”
Knots: “Two-thirds of a title!
Does that make her two-thirds a champion?”
Sharper: “The title does not
make the champion, Jonathan. You know that.”
As Selena stands there, wearing blue jeans, a black t-shirt that says “#WeAreSCW” on it, and her black, leather coat, the Snow Queen
smiles as, from inside the changeroom, out steps her
wife, Deanna Frost. The fans cheer happily at the sight.
Deanna (smiling at Selena): “You'll be alright?”
Selena: “Yeah, I'll be fine.”
Lovingly, the platinum-blonde wraps her free arm around her wife to kiss her
deeply. Selena steps away from her wife, casting her a
smile.
Selena: “I'll be back.”
Deanna (with a teasing grin): “I'll be Mozart.”
With a roll of her eyes, Selena turns and begins walking down the hallway,
towards the ring.
Sharper: “Looks like Selena is headed to the ring – we hope to hear from her
regarding the events of Tabula Rasa!”
The scene fades to black.
COMMERCIALS
“BELIEVE IT!”
The fans are already on their feet as “The Truth About
Our Time” by Allen/Lande plays across the arena. Out
from the back, Selena Frost steps out, smiling brightly as the True-Believers
are already chanting “We Believe! We Believe!”
Sharper: “The United States Champion, Selena Frost, coming out to greet the SCW
Universe. And Knots, you gotta know that she's got
something to say about Tabula Rasa!”
Knots: “I just hope it doesn't take the whole show for her to say it.... have
you seen her promos?”
Adjusting the United States title, which is battered and damaged, over her
shoulder, Selena makes her way down the ramp, using her free hand to high-five
the fans on one side. She continues this as she walks around the outside of the
ring before being handed a microphone by the SCW crew. Continuing her walk,
Selena gets to the steps and makes her way up and into the ring, the fans still
cheering as she stands in the ring.
Sharper: “Now, Jonathan, you look at Selena, you see “The Face of SCW”, but you
look at her shoulder, where that title is...”
Knots: “I'll put it this way, Adam. If Selena is “the face”, then the United
States title is the guy that got curbed-stomped on the sidewalk by Edward
Norton Jr.”
Selena's theme music fades, as does the audience, to allow her to speak, the
Snow Queen bringing the microphone close to her lips.
Selena: “I imagine that you all know what I am here to talk about – evidence by
this...”
The platinum-blonde nudges the title that is over her shoulder.
Selena: “About a week and a half ago, I was ready to do what I have loved doing
since I got this championship. Defend it. Fight for it. Fight for all of you.”
She circles on the spot a little as she looks at the masses, who cheer for her.
Selena: “But it seems that Giovanni Aries had “other plans”... “other methods” of sorts for that night.”
Selena pauses for a moment.
Sharper: “That's putting it mildly.”
Knots: “As opposed to “He screwed and violated the United States title with a
screwdriver.”? It was like Shawshank Redemption!”
Selena: “And...well...this is the result.”
There is a mixed reaction, mostly boos, from the crown as the camera zooms in
on the mangled title on Selena's shoulder, the Snow Queen turning her head to
gaze at its bent and damaged gold.
Selena: “And while I stand here, still the United States Champion, I feel like
I let you guys down. Because, to me, a champion needs to represent the division
they champion. And with such great champions of the past like James Toreno, Shilo Valiant, Regan
Street, and several main-eventers and hall-of-famers, there's always been that
pressure that I put on myself as motivation to represent this division as best
as I can. But at Tabula Rasa, I let Giovanni and his partner-in-crime, Sam,
mock, ridicule, devalue, and deface this amazing division. And for that, I'm
sorry.”
A chorus of “nos” fills the arena.
Sharper: “The SCW Universe not quite agreeing that Selena should take the fault
for this.
Knots: I didn't see her play “DIY” with that screwdriver.”
Selena: “Now, Sasha, caring about this division and its representation, offered
to replace this belt. Shine it up, get some plates on
it – the works...”
The platinum-blonde looks at the title as she shrugs it off her shoulder.
Selena: “And I told her 'no'.”
Sharper: “No?”
Selena: “I told her that I didn't want to 'replace' the title I had fought like
hell in a roofed cage to win. I didn't want to replace the title that I
defended against Christy Matthews, Tommy Valentine, and Giovanni Aries. I
didn't want some 'replica title' just because this one had some dings and
scratches on it!”
Selena shakes her head as the fans cheer for her.
Selena: “Because what does that say about me? I've been busted open. I've been
bent around. I've been broken. I've been in pieces – did any of you throw me to
the curb to get something shinier?”
Selena smiles and nods.
Selena: “Damn right, you didn't! You believed in me and stood behind me!
Whether I was at my lowest, at my most damaged, or my most lost.”
Again, Selena gazes down at the title she holds.
Selena: “Gio, you thought that by damaging this
title, scarring it, you'd get to me – and you did. But I see this – this
championship – is just like me. Filled with battle scars from the wars its waged. And I...”
Selena looks up, a bright smile on her face.
Selena: “I am even prouder to be holding it!”
The fans erupt in cheers as Selena thrusts the title in the air with one hand
as she leans on the rope, gazing at the rampway.
Selena: “So all you did, Giovanni, was throw away a title match! And believe
me, I will be ensuring you pay for wasting our time like that! But right now,
I'm going to keep doing what I love to do! Defend this! And Giovanni and anyone
else who doubts me, believe it, whoever is next, I’ll
be ready and I will defend it…PROUDLY!”
“The Truth About
Our Time” by Allen/Lande plays as the crowd cheers.
Sharper: “I’m surprised
Giovanni Aries didn’t come out here, but then again.”
Knots: “I’ll flat out say it.
Giovanni wants to see how Selena acts. Does she still hold it in a couple of
weeks? If so, then what does it say?”
Sharper: “Either way, the
question is now who is next in line.”
Knots: “And is Giovanni done
with her?”
Selena holds up the title and
then steps over and goes to the ropes. She steps through and drops down to the
floor. She starts to head to the back. The camera follows her, focusing on the
broken title before we cut away.
Sharper: “Now lets go backstage where Spirit
Dansby is standing by with Glory Braddock.”
Backstage, the scene opens up
at the SCW interview area to see Spirit Dansby standing with Glory Braddock.
Spirit: “Thank you Adam. Glory,
you took the fight to Konrad Raab at Tabula Rasa. He
came out, without his mask, seemingly in a show of respect. Damian Angel
stripped that respect and unleashed Black Ice.”
Glory: “And I made Black Ice
choke out.”
The crowd roars.
Glory: “I have taken on
monsters. I’ve faced people bigger than me. I’ve dealt with issues like this,
but I’ll admit, Black Ice is something different. You feel the rage off of him
and Damian Angel and Giovanni Aries are trying to unleash that and for what? To
set him free?! No…this is because they want chaos.
Well, I was happy to quell some of that chaos by putting Konrad down for a
moment and getting that mask off of him.”
Glory pauses.
Glory: “Now Konrad, I know you’re
not here. I’m not sure why. But I hope you hear this…you don’t need Black Ice.
You need to take that mask and destroy it. Gio and
Damian Angel want to set you free…they want to control you with it. They proved
it when they put it on your face and you turned as you did. They know the
effect it has. And Konrad…if you do respect me, you’ll listen to that.”
Glory looks at the camera
before heading off. The crowd cheers a bit as Breakdown cuts to commercial.
COMMERCIALS
Breakdown returns as we see
Adam Allocco walking through the backstage area. He then heads toward one area
to see John Goddard and Peyton Rice talking. Adam stops and turns around, a bit
upset. He then looks around and smiles. He then heads down in the opposite
direction and smiles as he extends his arms out and two men stop him. Adam
stops and looks around. We realize the two men are Jordan Majors’ bodyguards.
Adam: “Whoa! Easy there. I’m just here to talk to someone who knows the
score around here. Jordan, baby. You can trust me. Totally got what you were
doing at Tabula Rasa.”
The crowd boos as the camera
pans out to show Jordan Majors.
Jordan: “You seem to have a
good head on your shoulders.”
Adam: “I’m a good judge of
talent and of character, and well, after Tabula Rasa, I wanted to tell you that
my son Ali…he thinks you’re amazing! You’re good with money. You’re hot. You’ve
got your own help.”
Jordan: “Yeah, well, he may
need to still keep waiting.”
Adam: “Why’s that? The guy’s a
catch. And you know, if you want, I can personally tell you everything you need
to know.”
Alistaire comes over.
Alistaire: “Dad…what are you doing?”
Adam turns to him, putting his
hand up to his mouth.
Adam: “Trying to close the
deal.”
Jordan clearly hears him
though.
Jordan: “You’d have to offer
me something neither of you have. Come on.”
Jordan turns and walks off as
her guards follow her. Adam watches her leave, almost leering at her.
Alistaire: “Stop it!”
Adam: “What? She’s smart. She’s
got a nice ass. Hot. Blonde. Has money. And all of
that means more fun.”
Alistaire: “I’m not here for fun. I’m
here to compete and succeed! And I thought you were trying to have me court
Peyton.”
Adam: “Options my boy. And if
she keeps playing hard to get, you play it back. Play the field. See who’s
interested. You’re young and virile! Plus, you should be the next champion
after Owen flubbed it! If Peyton doesn’t jump you, someone else will! Show them
you’re my son!”
Alistaire: “I don’t want to! And after
your ideas at Tabula Rasa, they run counter to everything I stand for! I don’t
need your help, inside or outside of the ring!”
Adam: “It’s fine. The fairer
sex…they’ll treat you well.”
Adam smiles and walks off. Alistaire, clearly embarrassed, starts to walk after him.
Sharper: “Does Adam realize
this is 2019?”
Knots: “Probably not. I get
trying to help your son hook-up, but he’s not interested! He probably never
will be!”
Scarlet Grey vs. Marie Jones
SCW Television Championship
Phillips: “The following match
is scheduled for one fall, and is for the SCW Television Championship!
Introducing first, the challenger.... from an undisclosed location, she is
Scarlet Grey”
“Nymphetamine (Deva-Fix)” begins to play, and once
the guitars kick in the lights dim just enough for red and white lights to
stand out as they sway across the stage. Out from the back saunters Scarlet
Grey, a smirk on her lips as she purposely sways her hips, drawing the gaze of
every fan in the arena as they are entranced by the mere sight of her walking
down the ramp, putting every runway model in existence to shame without even
actually trying. She slowly walks up the steps before stepping between the top
and second ropes, taking her sweet time with it to show off her ample display
of cleavage. Once she's in the ring she removes the metal gauntlets that are
part of her entrance attire and sets them and the robe on the ring steps before
leaning back in the corner.
Sharper: “Interesting turn of events here, Scarlet Grey challenges the TV Champion
Marie Jones... who won the title from Scarlet's tag team partner Ruby Amarant.”
Knots: “We could see the championship go right back into the hands of Red
Empire.”
Sharper: “That's right, another person who took Katya's side before Tactical
Warfare and part of the group that Marie feels used her. She'll do everything
she can to keep that title from falling back into their hands.”
“You and I walk a fragile line
I have known it all this time
But I never thought I'd live to see it break
It's getting dark and its all too quiet
And I can't trust anything now
And its comin' over you like its
all a big mistake"
Phillips: “And her opponent, from Boston, Massachusetts... she is the current
SCW Television Champion....”
"Holding my breathe, won't lose you again
Something's made your eyes go cold"
Phillips: ..."The Phoenix" Marie Jones!”
A spotlight shines down at the top of the entrance ramp. Pyro goes off. Then
Marie Annabelle Jones steps through the curtain, wearing her ring gear and her
signature black leather jacket. A broad, somewhat condescending grin is on her
face as she gaze out at the fans in the arena who
cheer loudly. The Tron shows images of her striking at her opponents with her
finishing and signature moves as the lyrics of "Haunted" by Taylor
Swift begin to flow through the arena. Marie begins to make her way down
towards the ring to loud cheering from the fans. As for Marie herself, she
stops to slap a few high fives with fans, recognizing them as they cheer her.
Then her focus is solely on the ring and the determined stride with which she
walks tells that story. Marie hops up onto the ring apron. She strikes a sultry
and sexy pose for the audience. Marie turns and leaps over the top rope and
into the ring. She then hops up onto the second turnbuckle of the nearby corner
and holds her arms up high into the air, getting a reaction from the crowd The
official takes the belt from her and holds it up over his head before handing
it off to the timekeeper.
Sharper: “Marie has made quite a turnaround since her sister Kimberly convinced
her that Katya and Dark Fantasy were using her. Katya doesn't seem to be done
with her, but if she's bothered by that you can't tell by looking at her right
now. She looks game.”
Knots: “She does, but take a look at Scarlet! She
looks just as game, ready to prove herself like her partner and friend Ruby
did. This isn't going to be easy for either woman.”
The bell rings. Scarlet takes a leisurely saunter around the ring, putting her
assets on display. Marie just watches with disdain as the crowd boos, although
a few male voices can be heard cheering. Scarlet walks up to
Marie, and reaches up to her face, trailing one finger down her cheek.
Marie scowls, and slaps her hand away. The crowd cheers. Scarlet glares, and
nails Marie with a forearm. The crowd then boos. Marie steps back, then counters with an uppercut. Scarlet
fires off another forearm. Marie blocks it and grabs Scarlet's arm,
sending her into the ropes. Scarlet springs back and Marie takes her down with
an arm drag. She keeps hold of Scarlet's arm, pulling on her shoulder. Scarlet
winces, but rolls through. Marie lets go. As Scarlet gets up, Marie drops her
with a pele kick. She makes
a cover.
1!
Scarlet kicks out. Marie pulls her up and sends her into the corner. Scarlet
hops up onto the ropes though and jumps, taking Marie down with a headscissors. She then stomps Marie to keep her down before
landing a leg drop, making sure to plant her rear close to Marie's face. She
sits on Marie's chest for a cover.

Marie shoves Scarlet off.
Sharper: “Well, that was a bit of an unorthodox maneuver, that cover.”
Knots: “It was but I liked it.”
Sharper: “Scarlet Grey has already started with her mind games, first caressing
Marie's cheek and now that. And Marie is getting annoyed.”
Marie gets to her feet, glaring. Scarlet gets up and turns and Marie grabs her,
sending her into the ropes. Scarlet though grabs the top rope to stop herself, then turns and smirks, bending over a little and
shaking her chest. Marie shakes her head and runs, looking to clothesline
Scarlet over the top.... but Scarlet drops and pulls the rope down, sending
Marie tumbling over and to the floor. The crowd boos.
Knots: “More mind games and it paid off, Marie landed a little awkward there,”
Sharper: “And Scarlet now sliding out. She can't win
the title out there.”
The official starts a count. (1) Scarlet grabs Marie by the arm and pulls her
up. Marie tries to shove her off, but Scarlet whips her around into the apron.
(2) The crowd boos. Marie grabs at her shoulder, but pushes off the apron and
swings at Scarlet, nailing a hard right. (3) Scarlet steps back. Marie hits
another. The crowd cheers, and she hits a third. (4)
Scarlet backs into the ring steps where she laid her entrance attire. Marie
grabs Scarlet from behind and shoves her towards the apron, to get her back
into the ring. (5) Scarlet though spins and has one of the metal gauntlet's in her hand. Marie sees it though and backs away.
The official then sees the gauntlet and yells at Scarlet. She looks down at her
hand, and drops it, feigning shock that she had picked it up. Marie shakes her
head. (6) Marie then grabs Scarlet by the back of her gear and shoves her back
into the ring, before sliding in herself. The official ends the count as both
women get to their feet.
Sharper: “Scarlet looked like she was about to nail Marie with that... that
metal arm piece she wears down the ramp. Our official saw it though.”
Knots: “I think someone else saw it too, look!”
Just then the crowd cheers and the camera cuts to the ramp, and we see Kimberly
Williams making her way down the ramp, wagging a finger exaggeratedly at
Scarlet's actions. Scarlet looks up at her approach and smirks.
Marie grabs Scarlet's arm from behind and spins her around, then nails her with
an elbow. She then sends Scarlet across, and on the rebound hits a dropkick.
She runs to the corner and bounces off with a split-legged moonsault,
landing perfectly. Kimberly is at the apron now and claps for her sister. Marie
makes a cover.

2!
Scarlet kicks out. Marie rolls off and gets to her feet. Scarlet rolls away and
sits up, shaking her head. Marie beckons for Scarlet to get to her feet. Scarlet leans back on her hands and crosses her feet at the
ankles. Marie scowls and stalks over. She grabs Scarlet's foot and drags her to
the middle of the ring. Scarlet pulls her leg back and starts to get up but
Marie kicks her thigh, and she goes back down. Marie then grabs her foot again,
stomps Scarlet in the gut, then flips her over, looking for a Boston crab.
Sharper: “Marie going for the Angel's Arch!”
Knots: “Scarlet isn't having it though!”
Scarlet pushes up with her hands and gets one leg free, then kicks backwards at
Marie. She hits a shoulder, and Marie drops her. The crowd boos. Scarlet rolls over and scuttles backwards to create distance.
Marie walks towards her, but Scarlet slides out of the ring, near the steps.
She eyes the arm gear laying there. Kim sees this and walks over. Marie shakes
her head. Kim goes to grab Scarlet, presumably to shove her back in.
Marie: “No Kim, don't touch her!”
Kim holds her hands up, so the official can see she didn't do anything. She
then makes a stabbing motion with one hand. Scarlet rolls her eyes at Kim and
walks around the corner, dragging her hand across the ring steps. The official
warns Kim against any possible interference as Scarlet slides back into the ring
behind him. The crowd boos.
Sharper: “Look! Scarlet has one of those arm pieces in her hand behind her
back!”
Knots: “And neither the official or Marie sees it!”
The official turns back to the ring, and Marie gives Scarlet a “bring it”
motion. Scarlet shrugs, then walks closer slowly. Marie opens her stance,
preparing for whatever Scarlet may have in mind. Kim then jumps onto the apron.
The official sees her and tries to wave her off, but Kim is pointing at Scarlet
and yelling.
Sharper: “Kimberly sees that illegal object!”
Knots: “And the official isn't listening. Hurry up Scarlet!”
Scarlet then pulls her hand out from behind her back, revealing to Marie that
the gauntlet is in place. Marie's eyes widen and she steps back. Kim gets more
frantic, and the official tries harder to make her stop. Scarlet smirks,
knowing Kim trying to help Marie is actually just helping her. Marie backs
away, but finds herself against the ropes. Scarlet raises her arm to strike.
Kim has enough, she sidesteps the official and steps
through the ropes. He spins and watches as Scarlet swings. Kim puts herself
between Marie and Scarlet, getting her arms up bracing for the impact, but
Scarlet stops just in time. The official then sees the gauntlet on her arm and
calls for the bell.
Knots: “Oh come on ref! She didn't even hit Marie!”
Sharper: “But she tried to, and if not for Kimberly, she would have! Our
official made the right call.”
Phillips: “Scarlet Grey has been disqualified! Therefore your winner and STILL
SCW Television Champion.... Marie Jones!”
Kim turns to Marie and they grin at each other as the crowd cheers. Scarlet
glares and fumes as the official tells her off. Kim
grabs Marie's belt from the timekeeper and hands it to her sister, then raises
her arm over-enthusiastically while Marie smiles weakly.
Sharper: “Marie doesn't seem too happy about retaining in such a manner, but
she remains champion this week.”
“The Old Me” by Memphis May
Fire and the Breakdown logo comes up on the screen. We follow up with a shot of
Bree Lancaster and then a shot of Angelica Jones before showing both.
Sharper: “As we continue to
wait for some of the big news, a big match about to take place. Bree Lancaster
will face off against Angelica Jones. Singles action!”
Knots: “And we’ve heard from
Angelica. She’s ready to go.”
Sharper: “Bree’s going to have
to be.”
Just then, the scene cuts to
the back as we see a limousine driving up to the building. The crowd cheers as
the limo pulls up to the back entrance and stops. The camera pans around it,
showing it off.
Sharper: “And we may have a
big arrival.”
Knots: “Mr. D maybe?”
Sharper: “We’ll find out!”
The scene fades to black.

Breakdown returns as we see
the limousine still parked at the back entrance. We pan back to show Sasha
awaiting the arrival of her father with Dean Black with her. The driver walks
over and opens the back door to the limousine. We then see Mr. D slide out from
the car, a scar on his forehead as he stands up. He looks at his daughter as
the crowd cheers.
Sharper: “The old boss is
here!”
Sasha walks over, smiling and
hugs her father.
Sasha: “Have a good flight?”
Mr. D: “It was fine. Doctors
are overworried. You are too.”
Sasha: “Well you did have a
severe concussion.”
Mr. D: “Well I’m here. And
I’ve seen the footage. Let’s chat first and then we’ll talk about how we’re
doing this.”
Sasha: “Of course.”
Sasha turns to Dean Black.
Dean: “This way.”
Sasha, Mr. D and Dean walk

Bree Lancaster vs. Angelica Jones
The lights dim as a voice
backed by piano music fill the arena.
{That's the price you pay.... Leave behind your heartache,
cast away
Just another product of today.... Rather be the hunter than the prey
And you're standing on the edge, face up... 'cause you're a NATURAL}
As the heavy music of Imagine Dragons kicks in the lights come back up and Bree
Lancaster is standing on the stage, dressed in her black silk robe and her arms
spread wide. Bree looks up as white sparks shower down behind her from the top
of the set to the stage. Scott Burnside appears behind her. The crowd boos
heavily.
Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for onefall
and has a twenty minute time limit. First, making her way to the ring, from New
Orleans, Louisiana and being accompanied by Scott Burnside, she is Bree
Lancaster!"
The chorus continues as Bree and Scott make their way down the ramp, Bree
holding her arms out all the way to the ring. She stops at the steps and Scott
hands her the belt before going up. Bree follows and Scott holds the ropes open
for her to step through. She pulls on the silver belt holding her robe closed.
The robe opens, revealing her black shimmery gear. Bree pulls the robe off and
tosses it aside, where it lands over the top rope. She then walks a circle in
the ring showing off, before going to the corner. Scott is on the outside and
pulls her robe off the ropes as her music fades out.
Sharper: “Bree Lancaster
annoyed by the result at Tabula Rasa. But she has an opportunity to remind what
she can do.”
Knots: “If she doesn’t face
the Dragon tonight. Angelica Jones does not look like she has any desire to put
up with Bree Lancaster’s whole persona.”
The lights dim to a crimson
red color throughout the arena. A high pitched female voice can be heard over
the PA speakers…
"I Lost My Miiiiiiind..."
The image of a red dragon appears on the Tron. The dragon is engulfed in flames
as it is replaced by a phoenix. Then that too goes up in flames as it is
replaced by an image of Angelica Jones. The Tron shows images of Angelica Jones
delivering the Hot Shot and the Divine Impact to SCW stars. Angelica then steps
out onto the stage. She is dressed in all black, from head to toe, and that
includes a black trenchcoat. The SCW World Tag Team
Championship is around her waist. Her long hair hangs down to shoulder length.
Phillips: “And her opponent,
from Boston, Massachusetts, she is one half of the SCW World Tag Team
Champions, Angelica Jones!”
She stares menacingly,
sadistically down at the ring, pausing before finally beginning to make the
long walk to the ring. Once at ringside she takes a sharp turn to the right and
the ascends the steel steps, making her way up to the
ring apron. She strolls slowly to the center before turning towards the
audience. She looks out intensely at the crowd before posing with both arms
raised high into the air. Angelica steps into the ring and then steps over to
the opposite side of the ring where she poses on the second rope. She then
jumps off and heads to the center where the music dies down and the lights come
back up. She stands, waiting for the match to begin. She takes off her title and
places it in the corner.
Sharper: “Angelica Jones
trying to focus on Bree. James Evans has to be in the back of her mind as we
heard earlier.”
Knots: “She’d know. But she
seems more at ease of letting the Dragon show up. Did at
Tabula Rasa and tonight too.”
Angelica looks at Bree as Bree
looks around. The bell sounds. Bree immediately exits the ring. The crowd boos
as Angelica walks towards her. She then starts to back up as Bree walks around.
(1) She looks at Angelica, telling the official to get her back. (2) Angelica
then steps back as Bree grabs at the ropes. She pulls herself onto the apron. Angelica
looks back as Bree enters. Angelica steps forward. Bree steps out and points to
her. The official backs up and turns to Angelica. Bree then enters and runs
over and Angelica blocks a hard right, pushing the official aside before
kicking Bree in the ribs. She spins her around into the corner. The crowd roars
as Angelica kicks her in the ribs and then again and again and again. The
referee counts.

Angelica backs up and turns to
the official. Bree slowly stirs as Angelica turns back and Bree reaches up and
rakes her eyes. The crowd boos. Bree spins Angelica into the corner.

Knots: “Not just that, but it effin’ hurts!”
Bree kicks Angelica in the
ribs as the referee reprimands her. (1) Bree kicks her again and then whips her
across. Angelica hits the corner. Bree runs across and Angelica gets a boot up.
Bree stumbles back. Angelica runs out and stops, feigning a clothesline. Bree
ducks and Angelica kicks her in the ribs and nails her with an uppercut,
knocking her back. Bree rolls over and gets up and Angelica walks over and
pushes her into the ropes and fires her off. Bree bounces off and Angelica hits
a back drop. Bree winces and falls to the ropes. Angelica turns toward her, but
Bree kicks her in the ribs and then grabs her and throws her face first into
the middle turnbuckle. Angelica rolls back. She turns, shaking her head. Bree
watches her.
Sharper: “Angelica caught
again. Bree luring her in and driving her into the middle
turnbuckle.”
Knots: “Well Bree just using
any trick she can. She wants to win. It’s that simple. Unless
it’s against Selena. Then she’ll just quit!”
Sharper: “Don’t bring that up
around her.”
Knots: “Why not? She said it!”
Bree then grabs Angelica and
clubs her in the back. Angelica staggers forward. Bree then kicks her in the
thigh. Angelica falls to the ropes. Bree then spins her around and whips her
across the ring. Angelica bounces off and Bree scoops her up and hits a powerslam. She goes for the pin.

at Angelica. Angelica ducks a clothesline and hits a pele kick. The crowd ohs
and Bree falls back. Angelica rolls over. She pulls herself up and turns to
her. Bree slowly gets up and Angelica runs at her and spins around and into a backcracker. The crowd ohs. Bree rolls over, holding her back. Angelica

Knots: “Do it again!”
Sharper: “Going for a pin
instead!”

Angelica goes for a clothesline. Bree ducks and hits the Priceless. Angelica
falls to the mat.
Sharper: “Bree ducks and then
drilled Angelica between the shoulder blades. That superkick!
She calls it Priceless.”
Knots: “May be just that if
she can win this!”
Sharper: “Angelica in pain. Bree taking a moment to figure out how to follow up.”
Bree gets up and grabs
Angelica. Angelica pulls away and Bree clubs her in the back and then again.
She then pushes her into the corner. Bree knees her in the ribs and then again.

The crowd boos. Bree rolls
off.
Phillips: “Here is your
winner, via pinfall, Bree Lancaster!”
Sharper: “And Bree Lancaster
gets the three!”
Knots: “Moral victory here.
Not Tag Titles, but Bree Lancaster managing to put her down.”
Sharper: “And leading into
Taking Hold of the Flame and we know very well she’ll be in there, that’s a win
she may have needed for her confidence.”
Bree gets up and smiles. She
has her arm raised as Scott Burnside walks over. Bree looks at Angelica and
then quickly drops down and goes to the floor. Angelica just turns over,
wincing in pain. Bree has her arm raised again by Scott Burnside. They then
start to walk around the ring. Bree looks at Angelica with a stern glare before
starting to head to the back with Scott.
Backstage, we see Mr. D, Dean
Black and Sasha in one of the open areas by the tunnel.
Sasha: “Are you ready for
this?”
Mr. D: “I’m not one to shy
away from confrontation. At least with regards to
competitors.”
Dean: “We’ll be prepared.”
Sasha turns.
Sasha: “Dean…”
Dean walks over.
Dean: “Okay, Gio. You need to leave.”
Giovanni steps forward and
Dean stops him.
Giovanni: “But for an
opportunity to see a wounded Lizard King. Why would I step away? To see him
return, to inject another dose of false sympathy…oh this is just too sweet!”
Sasha: “Gio!
Leave!”
Giovanni: “He can tell me to
go. Come on…tell your followers to all get me away. Tell them to prove their
loyalty. Or maybe they realize you’re not worth protecting!”
Dean: “Okay, Gio…we’re going-“
Just then, we see James Evans
running up from behind. He nails Giovanni from behind. Dean falls back and
rolls over, caught in the middle of it. Giovanni hits the floor and Mr. D pulls
Sasha back. James then dives onto Giovanni’s back and forearms him in the back
of the head and then again. He then places his forearm on the back of
Giovanni’s head and starts to grind it into the concrete. Mr. D turns and
motions off to someone as Sasha looks around. James keeps grinding Giovanni in
as we see some blood start to appear on the floor underneath. Dean starts to
get up as James grinds more and more before nailing him again. Dean grabs James
and pulls him off. James falls back and rolls over. Dean turns and steps up to
him. Giovanni rolls over, grimacing in pain, his face covered in blood, only
shown for a moment, showing his nose clearly broken, and blood covering his
face from above his forehead before it’s quickly pixelated.
Sharper: “Oh my God.”
Knots: “James Evans attacking
Giovanni Aries! Guess your plans working out!”
Sharper: “That’s not an
attack. He’s trying to maim Giovanni!”
Knots: “Look at the blood!”
Sharper: “We’re pixelating it
because of the graphic nature. My God…”
Knots: “His nose is screwed up
thanks to James!”
Sharper: “And look at James!”
James looks over, stunned as
he then turns away before turning back. Dean then motions as a couple of
officials come over. A couple check on Giovanni and we
hear Giovanni chuckling. Mr. D and Sasha look at him as Sasha turns away, not
okay with the graphic attack.
James: “I…I-“
Dean: “Just get him out of
here. Get him out of here!”
James Evans looks at Giovanni
as officials start to drag him off and we cut away.
COMMERCIALS
MOMENTS AGO:
We see Giovanni Aries being held back by Dean Black as he
berates Mr. D and Sasha.
Sharper: “Welcome back to
Breakdown. James Evans lost control moments ago. Giovanni Aries confronted Mr.
D and Sasha with the same ridiculousness he has for a long time and well…”
Knots: “He snapped.”
Sharper: “And we warn you,
we’ve repixilated things, but we warn you, it is
graphic!”
Giovanni: “He can tell me to go. Come on…tell your
followers to all get me away. Tell them to prove their loyalty. Or maybe they
realize you’re not worth protecting!”
Dean: “Okay, Gio…we’re going-“
Just then, we see James Evans running up from behind.
Giovanni goes down as Dean goes down and James mounts Giovanni. He nails
Giovanni with a couple of forearm shots before starting to grind his face in.
We cut forward as the Breakdown logo comes up on the screen. We then see
Giovanni turn over, his face pixelated but clearly showing blood underneath.
James Evans is then shown stunned. The Breakdown logo comes up again.
We open up to see James Evans
getting walked out of the building. Angelica Jones walks over, still in her
gear.
James: “Angelica! I failed.
I’m…I need to go.”
Angelica: “James…you didn’t. I
heard. You went after Gio. That’s one very good
step.”
James stops and the officials
stop with him.
Official 1: “Come on James.”
James: “You didn’t see what I
did to him. The crazy bastard laughed through it after.”
Angelica just watches as James
shakes his head.
James: “Sorry…but I don’t know
if there’s anymore Redemption after this.”
James turns and walks off as
Angelica looks down and then looks up, shaking her head as we cut away.
Sharper: “James Evans forced
to leave.”
Knots: “It may be more. That
was the most brutal assault we’ve seen in a while. He just ground Giovanni’s
face into mash!”
Sharper: “And Giovanni, as he
pointed out was laughing. He lost it on Giovanni! And they were sharing a
locker room prior to Tabula Rasa.”
Knots: “The Wonderland may not
be for everyone. And Giovanni...James won’t be the same. What
about Giovanni?!”
Jordan Majors vs. Aaron Blackbourne
The lights go down and flash
purple as "7 Rings" by Arianna Grande starts to play. When the lyrics
start, Jordan walks slowly out on the stage with a bedazzled trenchcoat dragging along the ground behind her as two
bodyguards follow behind her. She smirks when the beat drops and starts to walk
down the ramp ignoring anything the fans around her say. She stops down at the
bottom of the ramp and puts her arms out as the bodyguards remove the coat.
Jordan saunters around the ring to the steps and slowly makes her way up as the
house lights come back on. She climbs under the ropes and steps up onto the
turnbuckle and rubs her fingers together as she looks out at the crowd. She
taps her chest as she yells that she gets what she wants while her bodyguards
move to stand in her corner out on the floor.
Sharper: “If there’s one thing Jordan Majors has made perfectly clear, it’s
that she doesn’t take well to the spotlight not being on her at all times,
something she tried to ‘resolve’ at Tabula Rasa.”
Knots: “No kidding. She was teaming with three former World Champions and the
opposing side even had a hometown hero getting all the obvious attention, and
she still threw her money around to try and become the talk of the match!”
Sharper: “Well tonight she’s going to have to try and back up all of it without
any partners to hide behind.”
All of a sudden, the lights go out, prompting a surprised pop from the fans.
The tune of “The Nexus” by Amaranthe begins as a
distorted speech that can barely be made out plays amidst the beat, but it’s
not long before the song kicks into full gear, and when it does red and white
lights begin pulsing on the stage as we see that smoke
has begun to engulf it. When the lyrics kick in, the Tron comes to life with
clips of Aaron Blackbourne in action, both as himself
and as his various demon incarnations. When the song hits the chorus, pyro
suddenly goes off on the stage in sync with the creative soul himself suddenly
shooting up through the smoke and standing tall on the stage, arms raised and
outstretched as the fans erupt into cheers. The lights start to come back on,
albeit dimmed, as Blackbourne begins making his way
down to the ring, happily accepting high fives from the fans with a smile.
Sharper: “Tabula Rasa was not the homecoming Aaron Blackbourne
was hoping to have, but if there’s one thing he’s constantly proven capable of
it’s moving on and staying focused on what lies ahead.”
Knots: “This man’s established himself as quite a challenge in a little over a
year of being part of the SCW roster. When even the likes of Regan Street are
deeming you a future World Champion on Twitter, you know you’re doing something
right!”
As Blackbourne reaches ringside he suddenly leaps
onto the apron and quickly climbs so that he’s got one foot on the top
turnbuckle, and in tune with the chorus kicking in a second time he briefly
crosses his arms across his chest before throwing them out in the same raised
and outstretched pose as before, white spotlights suddenly coming on and
converging on him as he closes his eyes and basks in this moment. When the
chorus ends, Blackbourne leaps from the top into the
ring, and suddenly Jordan’s bodyguards both slide into the ring and begin to
approach him. The music slowly cuts off as referee gets between the two
parties, but one of the bodyguards just shoves him aside as the other lunges at
Blackbourne, only for him to duck underneath and move
to catch the other bodyguard with a discus elbow smash! He hits the mat and
rolls out of the ring as Aaron turns to the bodyguard in the corner, blocking a
right hand before firing back with several of his own before following up with
a dropkick that sends him tumbling out of the ring as well. As Aaron rises to
his feet, however, Majors clubs him from behind several times before using his
jacket as leverage to hurl him shoulder-first into the turnbuckle post! The impact
leaves many fans cringing as Majors backs off with a smile, responding to the
referee’s admonishing with ‘polite’ demands to ring the bell.
Sharper: “Shades of Tabula Rasa when Majors used a distraction to get the jump
on Blackbourne prior to that eight-person tag match.
The desperation of this young woman is just disgusting.”
Knots: “And she could care less Adam. Hell, she’d probably even pay someone to
pretend to care about what you just said. I wouldn’t put it past her!”
The referee checks with Aaron as he slowly stands back up in his corner,
wincing and holding his shoulder. Despite the concerns, Aaron tells the referee
he’s still good to go, and despite the concern on his face he signals for the
bell. The moment it’s rung, Majors bolts across the
ring and smashes Blackbourne against the turnbuckles
with a jumping corner splash! Aaron falls to his knees and Jordan grabs his
arm, repeatedly slamming the point of her elbow into his shoulder to capitalize
on the damage her pre-match attack caused. The fans are booing as she pulls Blackbourne back to his feet before irish whipping him across the ring and following in
with another corner splash. Blackbourne staggers out
of the corner and right into a roundhouse kick to the side of the head that
drops him! Majors quickly goes for the cover.
1!
The referee’s hand just barely avoids hitting the mat for the two count as Blackbourne kicks out!
Jordan actually looks annoyed that she didn’t put him away in quick fashion and
starts arguing with the ref, the camera audibly picking up a threat from her to
buy out his SCW contract and fire him for counting too slow. She sees Blackbourne starting to get back up and grabs him before
whipping him into the ropes. She goes to catch him with a nasty spin kick on
the rebound, but Blackbourne ducks and puts on the
brakes, catching her as she turns around with a step-up enzuigiri!
Jordan immediately rolls out of the ring to avoid any sort of follow up as Blackbourne finally removes the jacket from his entrance,
albeit with some noticeable difficulty due to his shoulder.
Sharper: “Majors may have gotten a jump start on this match, but now she’s
starting to find out it’s going to take a lot more than that to keep Aaron Blackbourne down.”
Knots: “Runner-up in last year’s End of the Year Open Invitational, former
two-time TV Champion, pushed Regan to the limits roughly a month ago for the
Adrenaline Title… Aaron can go for quite a while without losing any steam.”
Blackbourne tosses his jacket out of the ring before
going to grab Majors to bring her back into the ring, but as he nears the ropes
her bodyguards quickly move to help her up and threaten to attack, which the
fans voice their displeasure at. Aaron just shakes his head before a lightbulb
seems to go off as the referee leans through the ropes and warns the two men to
stop getting involved. Blackbourne suddenly bounces
off the opposite ropes and clears both the referee and the top rope with a
suicide somersault senton that lays out the
bodyguards! Unfortunately, one of them had the foresight to shove Jordan out of
harm’s way and as Aaron is starting to rise she retaliates by charging in and
dropkicking the shoulder she’s been targeting, causing him to fly back as it
impacts the steel steps! The referee waves to the back as Majors grabs him and
rolls him back into the ring before following where she attempts another pin.
1!
2!
Blackbourne kicks out! Jordan is beginning to look
visibly annoyed now, even more so when she glances through the ropes and see
that the referee has summoned a few extra officials to escort her bodyguards to
the back to avoid any further interference. She quickly gets in the referee’s
face about this, threatening him and poking him hard in the chest before
backing off when he threatens to disqualify her.
Sharper: “Thank god for the referee calling to get those guys out of here.
Bodyguards or not, they had no business getting involved in this match!”
Knots: “At least Blackbourne got to wipe them out
first, but that incredible flip missed the one person he actually needed to
land on!”
Blackbourne rises to his knees as Majors turns her
attention back to him, grabbing him by the hair and slowly drilling him with
punch after punch, gloating about how much more success she has compared to him
and listing off the things she could buy that she figures he wants but will
probably never afford. Blackbourne finally responds
to this with an uppercut that rocks her and causes her to stumble back a bit,
but before he gets too far back up, she drills him in the shoulder with a shoot
kick! He cringes as he falls back to his knees, clutching at his shoulder
before she starts unloading repeated shoot kicks onto his chest in a manner
reminiscent of how he usually does it, drawing more jeers from the fans. She
backs off briefly just to pose and soak in the hatred before firing off one
last kick to the head, only for Blackbourne to duck
it! As Majors spins around, he quickly rises and takes her over with a snap
dragon suplex, sticking the bridge!
1!
2!
Blackbourne releases the pin attempt as his shoulder
isn’t able to maintain the bridge anymore.
Sharper: “That shoulder’s beginning to cause more than its fair share of
problems for Aaron in trying to mount any offense.”
Knots: “That might be the one thing Jordan can take away from this right now
because she keeps giving him the openings he needs to fight back.”
Blackbourne takes a moment to roll and stretch his
shoulder, trying to work through some of the pain as Majors uses the ropes to
help her back to her feet. She tries to charge at him and take advantage of him
being distracted by the potential injury, but he ducks a clothesline attempt
and takes her down with a sleeper slam. He slowly backs into the same corner
she was just near, motioning for her to rise while he
still works out his shoulder. As she gets back to her feet, he charges and
connects with a front dropkick with enough impact that it sends her flying into
the opposite corner, the back of her head smacking the middle turnbuckle as she
drops to a seated position. He runs back to the opposite corner, pausing
briefly to avoid any self-inflicted damage from how he normally performs this,
before charging in and completing the Creative Process with a nasty double knee
smash! He drags Majors out of the corner and goes for a cover.
1!
2!
Majors gets a foot on the bottom rope! The fans
continue cheering Aaron on as he hauls her back to her feet and lifts her onto
his shoulders to Pull the Trigger, but his adrenaline rush starts to fade as
his shoulder pain causes him to let Majors slide off and land behind him, and
when he turns around she connects with a stiff european
uppercut that drops him to his hands and knees! She takes a few steps back and
measures him before delivering a nasty punt kick right to the shoulder! She
immediately follows this up by applying an armbar,
trying to capitalize on the damage she’s been doing since before the bell rang.
Sharper: “Majors looking to end this match and make Blackbourne
submit to this armbar!”
Knots: “Jumping him before the bell might actually pay off for her second
straight encounter with the creative soul!”
The referee checks in, but Blackbourne refuses to
give up despite the immense amount of pain he’s in. The fans are rallying
behind him as he starts slowly crawling towards the ropes, Majors cranking even
more on the armbar and angrily yelling at him to just
give up already. Despite pulling back as far as she’s able to, Blackbourne manages to reach out with his good arm and
grabs the bottom rope! The fans roar as the referee begins his count, and
Majors reluctantly lets go just before he hits five. She angrily pounds the mat
before glaring at the referee as he checks on Aaron, who’s using the ropes to
help himself back to his feet as he holds his shoulder. She grabs him and
shoves him out of the way, berating him for never once checking on her
throughout the course of this match with claims of being ‘far more important’
than her opponent. The referee stands his ground and Majors is soon distracted
as Blackbourne grabs her and spins her around, but
she quickly stuns him with a superkick! He falls back
against the ropes and slowly bounces back, giving her the perfect opening to go
for the Cash Out! Before her feet can leave the mat, however, Blackbourne manages to shove her off, and as Majors turns
she’s blasted under the jaw with the Unchained Creativity! She staggers a bit,
her eyes slowly rolling into the back of her head before she unceremoniously
collapses in a heap, and Blackbourne manages to roll
her over into a cover.
1!
2!
3!
The bell rings as “The Nexus” by Amaranthe hits again
as Blackbourne gets to his feet, the referee raising
his good arm as he smiles at the win he just got back from Tabula Rasa.
Sharper: “Blackbourne gets a measure of revenge for
Majors being one of the factors that spoiled his homecoming at Tabula Rasa here
tonight!”
Knots: “Majors can talk a big game all she wants, but Blackbourne
just proved that money can’t always buy you an easy ride to the top of the
mountain.”
Blackbourne exits the ring and decides to take his
leave through the crowd as he notices Jordan’s bodyguards
running back down to the ring. He works out his shoulder a bit more as fans
cheer and pat him along the way while the bodyguards shove the referee away and
check on Majors themselves before helping her out of the ring.
Backstage, we see Manvel
sitting backstage. Cupcake walks over to him.
Cupcake: “You need to stop.”
Manvel can be seen rewinding
something in front of him, before we see part of the movie trailer shown
earlier.
Manvel: “That bad mama got a

Cupcake: “I didn’t know.”
Manvel: “How did you not know?

Cupcake: “Well this is more mainstream than-“
Manvel: “We’re going to fight

Manvel then rewinds again,
shaking his head, looking annoyed.

down the rampway and down to the ring. Mr. D waves at
some of the fans as Sasha smiles. We cut backstage to see Katya watching on one
of the monitors.
Sharper: “Here we go. We’re
going to find some answers we assume.”
Knots: “She wanted her father
here to be involved in it. We’re going to find out who tried to take him out to
end Retribution a month and a half ago!”
Sharper: “And his youngest,
Katya, also watching.”
Sasha and Mr. D reach the ring
and Mr. D walks up the steps. He looks around before holding the ropes open as
Sasha walks up and steps inside. Dean walks over to the ropes and Mr. D motions
to him. Dean Black chuckles a bit as he walks up and holds the ropes instead of
Mr. D. Mr. D says something to him before stepping in. Dean just smirks a bit.
Sharper: “We already saw that
attack by James Evans on Giovanni Aries. It’s already been an eventful night
for those two.”
Knots: “Katya and Sasha also
getting in each other’s face.”
Sasha and Mr. D walk around
the ring as Sasha asks for a microphone. She’s handed one and she takes it
before walking over to the middle of the ring.
Sasha: “Tonight is a night
I’ve both been looking forward to and anxious about. Dean and I have been
working hard with a number of private investigators and people in the SCW Front
Office to try and determine who could have attacked my father. And my father
has even looked at it. And it’s brought us to this…your first time in an SCW
ring since you effectively stepped down.”
The crowd cheers a bit as some
boo that announcement as Mr. D shrugs.
Sasha: “I wish this was
because of better circumstances.”
Mr. D can be seen saying “me
too.”
Sasha: “But I wanted you to be
here for this. I wanted you to come out and have the opportunity to confront
who the evidence holds to be the case. And well…First, we should make clear
that this isn’t going to be some he said, she said.”
Mr. D nods.
Sasha: “My father wanted us to
share the footage we have with all of you. So you know exactly what we are
working with and our strongest piece of evidence, next to who
it couldn’t be, thanks to the Tactical Warfare match, and assuming it was
someone who wanted to ensure they got a parting blow against you, dad.”
The crowd boos a bit.
Knots: “Sadly too many people
want to take him out.”
Sharper: “You should be
careful. You were one at one point.”
Knots: “I just thought he was
a douchebag!”
Sasha: “So, if the people in
the production truck could help us out. Please show the original security
footage we had of the incident.”
The camera remains on the trio
in the ring before we cut to the big screen.
The footage is fuzzy as we see a parked car. We then see
Mr. D walking out of the building with the cameraman. From the other side of
the doors, we see a figure wearing a hoodie. He grabs the cameraman pulling him
down. Mr. D turns but before he can do anything, we see the man, who looks to
be at least the same size as Mr. D if not bigger, kick in the ribs before
grabbing his head and driving it into the window. It shatters as Mr. D goes
down. The image however is so fuzzy that only figures could be shown. We then
see the hooded man turn and run off. We notice him reach out to someone before
going off screen.
The crowd boos as we return to
a live shot.
Sharper: “Unbelievable.”
Sasha: “Now, we noticed a
couple of things. First…that it had to be a male, given the size. But also, the
end…they reached out and grabbed someone before heading off.”
Sharper: “Good catch.”
Sasha: “Now let’s show the
same footage cleaned up.”
We replay the footage, this time a bit clearer. We can
make out a few more features, namely that the hooded man’s shirt is a bit more
obvious, showing some sort of symbol on the front, etched in white. The man is
shown knocking over the cameraman before kicking Mr. D. We notice that he’s
wearing wrestling boots. We then see Mr. D thrown into the car before he turns
and walks off, reaching out and grabbing what appears to be a female’s arm.
Mr. D looks at the screen. The
crowd boos some more.
Sasha: “At this point, we can
tell that they’re wearing wrestling boots. Otherwise,
everything still too hazy to make out. But we asked to look at some
other footage, that earlier. And we figured it would only be a bit before. But
we went back and back. And well…we cleaned up this footage.”
We cut back to the big screen.
The footage starts to play, showing the familiar sight,
Mr. D’s car already there, showing it had been parked there for a while. A few
moments pass before we see two figures walk out of the building. We see one
male, holding his head, clearly in pain before shaking it off. In the process,
his hoodie comes off, revealing short cut hair. He turns, giving a clear shot
of his face. It stops.
We then cut to the arena where
we see Xander Valentine walking to the ring, Artemis
with him.
Sharper: “That’s Xander!”
Knots: “No…THAT’s Xander!”
Sharper: “Xander
Valentine coming to the ring! I thought he was taken out by LEO that night!”
Dean Black turns and Xander pulls himself onto the apron. He then steps in and
Dean tells him to stop.
Sasha: “We need officials out
here-“
Xander turns and throws Dean Black
over the top rope. Mr. D turns to his daughter, Sasha, and tells her to leave,
but as he turns back, Xander boots him in the face.
The crowd ohs and boos.
Sharper: “Xander!
Booting Mr. D in the face!”
Knots: “How brazen can you
be?”
Sharper: “He was waiting
outside and then this!”
Sasha moves to the corner as Xander walks over toward her. He then stands over her.
Xander: “He deserved it for how he
treated me. And if you follow in kind, I will do the same to you.”
Dean Black gets up and he runs
over to Xander. He then grabs him and pulls him off.
He nails him in the ribs with a hard right and then nails Xander
with a hard shot too. The crowd roars as Xander knees
him in the ribs. He then looks out as he shoves Dean Black back as Selena
Frost, Kennedy Street, and Regan Street run out from the back.
Sharper: “Threatening the boss
now! And Dean trying to fight him off! Former World Champion!”
Knots: “He’s got no shame. You
heard him. This is all because of last year!”
Sharper: “Selena! Kennedy!
Regan! They’re all coming out!”
Knots: “They all respect both
Mr. D and Sasha!”
Selena slides in first,
followed by Kennedy Street and then Regan. Xander
grabs the top rope and backflips back and lands on his feet. He then backs up
and Regan turns and looks at him as Xander backs up.
He turns and looks around before hopping the barricade. He then starts to run
through the crowd. The crowd boos as Xander heads
through the crowd, pushing through, as even a security guard, tries to stop
him, but Xander pushes away. He then goes through the
crowd and steps over the barricade on the other side. Dean checks on Sasha as
Selena checks on Mr. D as Xander returns to the back.
The crowd boos as the scene fades to black.
COMMERCIALS
MOMENTS AGO:
Breakdown returns with a shot of Mr. D and Sasha in the
ring with Dean Black.
Sharper: “More shocking
moments here on Breakdown. We thought we would get an answer to who assaulted
Mr. D at Retribution. We found out who.”
Knots: “We definitely did. And
it was Xander Valentine!”
The replay starts to play as we see Xander
walking to the ring and then getting in. He turns and sends Dean Black out of
the ring. We cut forward to show Xander booting Mr. D
in the face. Mr. D goes down. We then see him walking over to Sasha and
standing over her.
Xander: “He deserved it for how he treated me. And if you follow in
kind, I will do the same to you.”
We then cut to see shots of Selena Frost, Regan Street
and Kennedy Street running down and Xander backflipping over the top rope. We then see him exiting
through the crowd.
Sharper: “Selena Frost, Regan
Street and Kennedy Street, despite other things on their mind, obviously very
interested in this moment, all having a professional respect for Mr. D and
coming out.”
Knots: “For Sasha too. Xander ran through the crowd though.”
Sharper: “And now, we’re
trying to figure out what is going on backstage.”
We cut live to see Mr. D on a
stretcher in the back, holding his jaw. Sasha is with him, as is Dean Black and
Selena Frost.
Selena: “You need to stay
down. Probably have a concussion.”
Mr. D: “I’m fine.”
Trainer: “O, we need to you to
listen. You’d tell them to stay down. We need you to do the same.”
Mr. D: “Even saw it coming.”
Selena: “Well, we’re all going
to make sure he regrets it.”
Dean: “Selena, we don’t-“
Selena: “Relax. It’s going to
be in the ring. Well, that’s up to you Sasha.”
Sasha: “At this point, we need
to deal with my dad. And we need to find Xander.”
Dean: “We’ve got Dillusion trying to track him down. Asked
him to help.”
Sasha: “You should go.”
Dean: “I’m not going
anywhere.”
Selena: “You can. I’m not
going anywhere. Giovanni was forced to leave for medical reasons. I’m safe.”
Sasha: “Go.”
Dean then nods and heads off.
Trainer: “Now, O, I’m going to
ask a few questions.”
Mr. D: “I know the drill. I’m
in the Pit, in Albuquerque. I just got kicked in the face by Xander Valentine. That pass the
tests.”
Trainer: “For now, you know we
do them again in another five minutes and again after that.”
Mr. D: “Yeah…”
Selena: “Just don’t worry
about Xander.”
Mr. D: “You’re right…I’m not.
Sasha…this one is up to you.”
Sasha: “He went after you.”
Mr. D: “Exactly reason I
shouldn’t get involved. You decide what happens to him.”
Selena turns to Sasha as she does,
we see Kennedy Street walking over.
Kennedy: “How are you?”
Mr. D: “Fine.”
Selena: “Just told Sasha that
it’s up to him what happens to Xander.”
Kennedy: “You better keep him
around. I’m done watching people running around without consequences and you
fire him, or suspend him, he gets what? To walk away.
Not anymore. All of us were effected by it.”
Selena: “Kennedy.”
Kennedy: “Offering my two
cents. After Chris, now finding out it was him…Just saying.”
Sasha: “I’m thinking about
it.”
We then see Katya storming
over.
Katya: “Where the hell is
Dean? Can’t even protect our father?! I knew I should’ve fired him, but oh
yeah, I couldn’t do that!”
Sasha: “Kat-“
Katya: “Dad. Are you okay?”
Mr. D: “I’m going to say it
again, yes, I’m fine.”
Katya: “Good, now get these
freeloaders out of here. No he’s not going to give you a title shot or an
easier run if you kiss his ass.”
Kennedy: “Excuse me. You want
to start this now?!”
Katya: “No. I want you to
leave and I want my sister to fire Xander.”
Sasha: “After you rehired
him.”
Katya: “This is not about me!”
Mr. D: “Girls….I didn’t have a
headache before but I have one now.”
Mr. D turns to Selena and
Kennedy.
Mr. D: “Go…I’ll be fine.”
Selena: “We’ll be nearby until
we know he’s gone.”
Kennedy glares at Katya as she
heads off with Selena. Katya and Sasha look at one another before we cut away.
Alexis Quinne
vs. Tommy Valentine
We open up to the ring where
Jason Phillips is in the ring.
Sharper: “A lot of people very
concerned obviously.”
Knots: “Lucky it wasn’t a
concussion.”
Sharper: “So it seems right
now. But you have people ready for Xander’s head. Katya and Sasha clearly having a difference of approach. And
now we’re going to the ring…”
Jason Phillips turns to the
timekeeper as he comes over.
Sharper: “At least we were
supposed to have a match. Uh…”
We cut backstage to see Xander Valentine backstage with Artemis. Officials stand
between him and Regan Street, Donovan Kayl and Kellen
Jeffries.
Regan: “Come on! Let him
through!”
Xander just smirks. He even motions
to Regan. Regan tries to get forward as Xander keeps
backing up. We then see Alexis Quinne also joining
the group, along with Sam Raine and Crissy Gardner.
Sharper: “They’ve found Xander. Xander standing on one side and a number of people standing across.”
Knots: “He wants that fight.
I’m on the angry mob with a Hellcat!”
Xander Valentine steps forward as
officials stop him. Regan starts to move forward as we see Dillusion
coming toward Xander.
Dillusion: “Come on! You need to leave
here. You’ve done what you came to do.”
Xander just looks at him.
Dillusion: “Come on. Please. We’re
friends-“
Xander: “You just worked for him.”
Xander then nails him with a hard
right. Dillusion falls back and into the wall. Xander steps back as Artemis then grabs one of the
officials as they step forward and wrenches his arm and pushes him back. Xander then motions to her. The officials follow as we see Xander and Artemis start to head off. Regan starts to push
through on the other side as Kayl and Kellen try to
hold her back. The crowd looks on. The camera angle changes as we see Xander and Artemis continuing to walk through the backstage
area, toward the exit as we see Tommy Valentine leaning against the wall. Xander looks at him. Tommy just smirks as he turns and
looks the other way.
Sharper: “Xander
leaving. More probably out of necessity.”
Knots: “What was that shared
between him and Tommy?”
Sharper: “I don’t want to
know.”
Xander and Artemis continues to go through the backstage area, heading to the
back entrance as officials are a few feet behind. Dillusion
walks behind, looking more annoyed than anything.
Sharper: “Hopefully we can
regain order here and return to our regularly scheduled show here. Stunning night here in Albuquerque. Just
stunning.”
The scene fades to black.
COMMERCIALS
Breakdown returns as we open
up backstage to see Regan Street backstage, annoyed with Mikaela Street.
Kennedy Street now is back with her.
Regan: “I want his head.”
Kennedy: “Get in line then.”
Regan turns to Kennedy.
Mikaela stops her.
Mikaela: “Regan…”
Regan: “Sorry….just….”
Kennedy: “Everyone’s damn
coward around here. Chris…Xander….”
Regan just looks around before
taking a deep breath.
Regan: “Datura…”
Mikaela looks at Regan and
then Kennedy. Kennedy’s phone then rings. Kennedy reaches into her front
pocket, pulling out her phone.
Kennedy: “It’s Trinity.”
Regan: “Take it…Nothing we can
do here except get more pissed off.”
Kennedy: “Seems to be a trend.”
Mikaela: “We should check on
Selena and Mr. D too.”
Regan: “Yeah…”
Kennedy answers the phone as
we cut away.
We cut back to the ringside
area to see Adam Sharper and Jonathan Knots.
Sharper: “Wild night here. Regan and Kennedy angry. Selena Frost riled up.”
Knots: “I’m pissed too!”
Sharper: “Yeah. We heard you
earlier. Xander Valentine revealed to apparently be
the one who attacked Mr. D.”
Knots: “Apparently. He then
came out and booted him in the face!”
Sharper: “And Mr. D going
through concussion protocol right now. We were going to see Tommy Valentine and
Alexis Quinne in action, but you saw both backstage
moments ago. And Tommy seemed to even be enjoying the scene.”
Knots: “I’d love to know what
he’s thinking.”
Sharper: “I don’t know if I
want to know that.”
Knots: “Either way, Xander’s gone right?”
Sharper: “Yes, he’s been
escorted out. Largely for his safety. A lot of people wanting to get their hands on him. He
assaulted a friend too in Dillusion. We’re going to
try and reset here. In moments, we’ll have Damian Angel face Owen Cruze. We also expect to hear from the interim World
Champion, Sienna Swann.”
Knots: “Probably not going to
hear from Chris Cannon. Too afraid to actually to find a
spine.”
Sharper: “Alright well-“
We cut backstage to see Sasha
backstage with Gigi Steward.
Gigi: “Look. You need
anything. The Stewards are behind you.”
Sasha: “Thanks. Just at this
point, we need to get through tonight and I need to talk to my father. Talk to
the board. Going to be a long night.”
Gigi: “If you ask me, it’s
easy. But that’s just me.”
Sasha: “I know…”
An official then walks over to
Sasha.
Sasha: “Xander
gone?”
Official: “Yes, but there’s
this. It’s Ravyn.”
The official extends a phone
to Sasha. Sasha sighs and takes it. She holds it to her ear. She then scoffs
and puts it on speakerphone.
Sasha: “You’re on speakerphone
now.”
Ravyn: “Tremendous. You listen to
instruction well. You should also consider Katya’s suggestion. But for now, you
wanted a response regarding your threat to Syren.”
Sasha: “It was less a threat. More giving her some motivation.”
Ravyn: “It was a threat. I trust I
know the definition of the word better than you do, regardless of your
overpriced University of Toronto education. Instead of giving into your threat,
I wish to negotiate.”
Sasha: “Seriously?”
Ravyn: “It’s a simple one. One that
can help you perhaps prove you can draw in the
ratings, something your sister was so superior at doing.”
Sasha says nothing.
Ravyn: “You realize I can see your
reaction. I’m watching this live. But you want Syren
to get her medical evaluation, you ensure that Abigail
Lindsay is present. She’s garnered my attention for a bit longer with her
stunt. Facilitate that and you can have all of Dark Fantasy present. That
should even please Ace and Cassidy.”
Sasha just looks up.
Sasha: “If it makes everything
easier, then yes. You pick wonderful times to negotiate.”
Ravyn: “Naturally.”
There is then a click as Sasha
shakes her head. The official nods.
Sharper: “Looks like Dark
Fantasy is going to be here next week!”
Knots: “Oh boy. Mexico City
next week is going to be a wild one!”
We then cut to another part of
the arena where we see Maddy Steward talking to Katya
backstage. The crowd boos seeing this.
Sharper: “Wait a minute. That’s
Maddy Steward!”
Knots: “Oh no…”
Maddy hugs Katya and then leans
back, saying something to her.
Sharper: “Katya took an
interest in her at Trios Tournament. But now it looks like Maddy
is trying to comfort her!”
Knots: “Or the Stewards are
playing both sides. That seems like a very Steward move!”
Maddy continues to talk to her as
we cut away.
Kandis is shown walking backstage as
the crowd boos, although some cheer. She takes a few steps as we see Tommy
Valentine step out of his locker room.
Kandis: “Tommy!”
Tommy turns and smiles.
Tommy: “Well, this is a nice
surprise.”
Kandis: “Figured, people are talking
about you. I should come talk to you first.”
Tommy: “About what?”
Kandis: “That
smirk.”
Tommy: “Nothing to worry
about. I smirk at a lot of things. You’d know.”
Kandis: “That’s true. Usually it’s things you like.”
Tommy: “If it helps, I frowned
at Tabula Rasa when you didn’t walk out champion.”
Kandis: “There will always be
another time. Plus, it’s nice to be up two on Ms. Pretty Peyton. Shows the
pedigree is only something. True talent stands out.”
Tommy: “Other things about you
do too.”
Kandis: “Well, care to smirk some
more.”
Tommy: “Sounds like a great
plan.”
Kandis and Tommy head off together.
Sharper: “Nothing to worry
about.”
Knots: “Smirking at things he
likes. The hell is wrong with him!”
“The Old Me” plays as the
Breakdown logo comes up on the screen before we see a still of Owen Cruze vs. Damian Angel.
Sharper: “Owen Cruze will face Damian Angel. We’re finally going to return
to the ring. That match, it’s your main event and it’s next!”
The scene fades to black.

Breakdown returns as Andrew Raynes walks into one of the locker rooms. Dustin Adams
smirks.
Adams: “Pandemonium out there.”
Raynes: “Oh yeah. It’s just someone
knocked D’s block off.”
Adams: “Hmmm. Well then.”
Raynes: “Plus, James is gone. Hopefully forever. Just a moment too late.
After the beating I gave him at Tabula Rasa, he needed to jump Gio from behind. Yeah, Gio
deserved it, but seriously, if that son of a bitch just drops the title because
of his mental crap, I’ll make sure that he won’t be getting aggressive or
whatever the hell it is.”
Adams: “Yeah, about that.”
Adams steps forward.
Raynes: “What? Don’t tell me you’re
feeling all lonely.”
Adams: “Just now that this
loyalty to Bree is done.”
Raynes: “It’s not just that. She
gave me the shot.”
Adams: “Well now that it’s
gone through. Lord knows Sasha isn’t giving you anything anytime soon.”
Raynes: “Yeah, well, given that
everyone who wanted their hands on me ran off. Dawn ran like the bitch she is.
Then Crissy and Sam couldn’t touch me. Alexis Quinne is running around like a muppet.
Kennedy can bitch about cowards. This roster is full of them.”
Adams: “So…”
Raynes: “Yeah. We’ll still have her
back. But time to get back to what we were doing. I think we have a bit of a
siesta next week in Mexico.”
Adams: “Couldn’t think of
anything better.”
Damian Angel vs. Owen Cruze
The opening lines of The Rasmus' "Lucifer's Angel" begin to play over the
crowd suddenly, without the introduction of the song. Damian Angel steps out
onto the top of the ramp , inciting boos from the crowd.
He looks at the crowd. In the slight pause between the verse
and the chorus, the lights in the arena all turn off, leaving the sight of
pitch black. As the chorus strikes up, a red spotlight begins to follow
Angel to the ring...
Phillips: “The following
contest is scheduled for onefall and has a twenty miute time limit. first, on his
way to the ring, from Hell, Michigan, representing the Wonderland, he is Damian
Angel!”
He starts to walk to the ring. By the end of the chorus, Angel has rolled
toward the centre of the ring, pulling himself to one
knee. Damian runs his hand over the canvas before pounding his right fist down
upon the SCW logo, immediately springing to his feet thereafter. Damian
unfastens the clasps of his rope, letting it drop down to the mat behind him.
He glares out over the crowd. Angel climbs onto the middle rope and
outstretches his arms, bringing them together in an 'X' formation as he looks
down towards the pits of hell. He repeats this process on the other three sides
of the ring, and after the last one he hops off the turnbuckle.
Sharper: “Damian Angel about
to face Owen Cruze in our main event here tonight.
Owen has had some history with Giovanni Aries wanting to get his attention.”
Knots: “And Owen may not be
World Champion, but he’s not exactly going to be in a mood to deal with Damian
if he tries anything.”
Sharper: “And remember that
Giovanni Aries has been taken from the building, to a medical facility, thanks to
James Evans attacking him. It’s been a wild night here.”
The opening beats to Southpaw
Swagger's 'It's Showtime' kicks in over the speaker system, the fans jumping to
their feet in acknowledgment of who is about to step out onto the stage. A huge
roar greets Owen Cruze as he steps out onto the
stage.
"It's Showtime!"
He brings his arms out to his side, nodding his head. His arms shaking he
brings them in, crossing them across his chest
"It's Showtime!"
He drops to one knee and punches the stage, as a huge burst of pyro erupts
behind him. Owen getting to his feet and walking to the ring.
Phillips: “His opponent, on
his way to the ring, from New Orleans, Louisiana, he is Owen Cruze!”
He runs up the ring steps and across the apron, turning to face the fans whilst
he holds the rope, punching out with the other hand. He enters the ring and
immediately climbs up to the top turnbuckle and applauds the fans, which gets
another huge reaction from them. He somersaults backwards, landing on his feet
and bounces off the ropes. Damian Angel walks up to him and Owen Cruze turns to him.
Sharper: “Owen Cruze ready to fight. Looked good at
Tabula Rasa.”
Knots: “Not good enough. But
the kid will learn.”
The bell sounds. Damian smirks
looking at him.
Damian: “Do you not see the
value of what I represent? Maybe Xander Valentine
understood after all these years-“
Owen immediately nails Damian
with a hard right. The crowd ohs.
Sharper: “Come on!”
Knots: “Damian Angel now even
taking shots at what happened!”
Sharper: “And Owen Cruze not going to even listen to it!”
Owen nails Damian again as the
crowd cheers and kicks him in the ribs. Damian leans back into the corner and
Owen kicks him in the ribs over and over and over again. The crowd cheers as
the referee calls for the break.

forces it down and forearms him in the jaw. He then grabs him and hip tosses

Damian kicks out.
Sharper: “Damian may have lit
a fire under Owen here. He’s just going right for him.”
Knots: “Damian probably didn’t
need to poke the bear. Then again, he’s different from Giovanni. He’s much more
direct!”
Sharper: “They call him Satan
Himself for a reason!”
Damian rolls over and gets up
and Owen grabs him, but Damian reaches up and rakes his eyes. He then chops him
in the chest. The crowd woos. Owen winces and Damian hits another chop. More
woos. He then kicks him in the ribs and whips him across. Owen bounces off and
Damian elbows him down. He then walks around. He starts to head to Owen, but
Owen nips up and hits a back kick to the ribs of Damian. He then backflips down
his back and Damian steps forward and turns only for Owen to jump up and hit a
step up enziguri. The crowd ohs. Owen rolls him over for the pin.
Sharper: “Just pure agility
right there! Enziguri to follow up!”
Knots: “And then a cover!”

Damian rolls through. He gets up and Owen kicks him in the ribs and hits a snap
suplex. He turns and exits to the apron and then
climbs up to the top rope. He gets to the top, but Damian turns and falls into
the ropes. Owen lands hard on the top turnbuckle, wincing in pain. Damian then
turns and walks over to him and then nails him with a hard right. Owen falls
back and down onto the apron and to the floor. He rolls over. Damian drops down
to the floor. (1)
Sharper: “Hard landing. First on the top rope and then to the floor.”
Knots: “Damian sending a
message there. We know Giovanni has been trying to win over Owen. Damian is
looking to bludgeon him into submission!”
Damian grabs Owen by the head
and pulls him up. (2) He then scoops him up and snaps him down with a snap
sidewalk slam on the mats. The crowd ohs as Owen
rolls over in pain. (3) Damian then grabs him and lifts him up. He looks at him
and says something to him before rolling him into the ring. Damian then slides

looks around and smirks before dragging Owen up and chopping him in the chest.
Owen falls back into the corner.
Sharper: “Damian Angel wearing
out Owen right now. Another hard chop.”
Knots: “Maybe Owen wishes he
was back in there with Gio!”
Damian then kicks him in the
ribs. He then leans in, choking Owen. The crowd boos as Damian berates Owen.
Damian: “You know that Eden is
the best place for you. The wonderland will guide you to what you most desire!”
Damian lets out a sadistic
laugh as the referee counts in the background.

but Owen catches it, spins him around and nails him with a superkick
of his own. Damian falls back into the corner. Damian starts to pull himself up
as Owen gets up and steps back. Damian steps forward and Owen jumps up and
snaps him over with a frankensteiner. The crowd
roars.
Sharper: “Owen with that
quickness, in one swift motion, takes Damian down!”
Knots: “Dropped him on his
head too!”
Owen rolls over and looks at
him as Damian stirs and starts to get up and Owen runs into the ropes, bounces
off and jumps up and hits the Cruze Stomp. The crowd
roars. Damian rolls to his back. Owen goes for the pin, hooking the leg.
1!
2!
3!
The crowd cheers as the bell
sounds.
Phillips: “Here is your
winner, via pinfall, Owen Cruze!”
Sharper: “The Cruze Stomp with the exclamation point!”
Knots: “May not be champion
but not looking to join the Wonderland either!”
Owen rolls over and looks at
Damian before having his arm raised. He looks around before nodding and then
pulling away. He starts to walk toward the corner and looks at Damian who
winces a bit. Owen then steps through the ropes and drops down to the floor. He
then smiles as he starts to walk toward the back.
Backstage, we see Sienna Swann
walking down the hallway with the interim SCW World Championship over her
shoulder. Laura walks with her. The two had down the hallway as the crowd boos.
Sharper: “We’ve been waiting
to hear what the interim World Champion had to say.”
Knots: “Of course she wants to
end the show.”
Sharper: “She will be joining
us. She, I’m sure, will have plenty to say. Sienna Swann joins us, next!”
The scene fades to black.
COMMERCIALS
Breakdown returns to the
arena. Suddenly one lone spotlight shines in entrance where smoke begins to come
out and surround the stage. “Style” by Taylor Swift begins to play throughout
the arena, the Tron plays the video of her various photo-shoots, training, fighting, swimsuits, lingerie and walking through nightclubs
with men gawking over her in skin tight dresses. A few moments pass before we
see Sienna Swann walk out from the back, holding the interim SCW World
Championship over her shoulder. Laura Steinbeck walks with her. Sienna looks
around as the crowd boos.
Sharper: “Welcome back to
Breakdown and as mentioned before the break, Sienna Swann coming out to address
the crowd.”
Knots: “Successfully defended
against Owen Cruze. Probably
thinking about Syren being an option. There
may be some other challengers. Nevermind everything else happening tonight.”
Sharper: “And the Beauty
Factory being in a significantly advantageous position. Sienna
as interim Champion. Trueloves as the next challengers
for the Tag Titles.”
Knots: “And James Evans left
earlier after attacking Giovanni Aries. Everything has to go her way, huh?”
Sienna walks down the rampway, looking around the arena as Laura follows her
down, smiling. Sienna and Laura reach the bottom of the rampway
before Sienna walks over to the steel steps. She walks up them and then walks
along the apron and looks out at the crowd. The crowd boos her before she steps
into the ring. She then walks to the middle of the ring and poses as Laura
Steinbeck enters into the ring. Sienna looks around as a golden hue comes over
the ring. She then smiles as she goes to the corner. She asks for the
microphone from Jason Phillips. Phillips obliges handing her one. Sienna takes
it and walks back over to the middle of the ring. Her music fades out as the
crowd boos some more.
Sienna: “I know. I know. It
has been a very trying night for so many of you. But don’t worry, your World
Champion is here and I am here for you, for the people!”
The crowd boos as Sienna
smiles, extending her arm.
Sharper: “Sure.”
Knots: “Unless it’s to throw
tomatoes at you, I think they disagree!”
Sienna: “But there is plenty
of good news beyond my arrival. It may be that FINALLY I can remove the
imposter holding what should be considered the actual interim World
Championship. Syren has been told she needs to answer
to her fraud and well, that’s just good for me as we all know that no one can
touch me in this ring.”
Sienna pauses and looks out at
the crowd, walking around the ring as she does, making sure to engage with each
portion of the audience.
Sienna: “Take Owen Cruze. Someone as young as that, as fast
as he is and I still dropped him with the Kiss of an Angel, right in the middle
of this ring. People had history already being made, not realizing they
were already in a historic era, one for the people, one with the Perfect World
Champion. That’s right. It’s not with Owen Cruze at
its helm. It definitely not with Kennedy Street at its helm.
We’d all be suicidal if it was Selena Frost or Giovanni Aries at its helm. And
it sure as hell is not with Syren at its helm. It’s
with me, someone who puts what all of you want first, whether you realize it or
not.”
Sienna smiles as the crowd
boos some more as Laura applauds.
Sienna: “And through me, you
have someone who actually is a champion in words and in deeds. Not only am I a
competitor of greater skill than anyone else, I am someone who gives back,
whether it is helping people legally enter this country…an honour when we go to
Mexico City next week. I have donated to causes close to my heart, like helping
Kelcey Wallace’s new wing at Cedars Sinai. I am
someone who is giving back and all for each and every one of you.”
The crowd continues to boo as
we even hear a “Shut the hell up!” chant start to come from the crowd. Sienna
just continues.
Sienna: “And in ensuring that
I was not going to have to deal with unwanted interference, I have to give
kudos to one person, someone who finally realized that I was not his enemy and
I have the best in mind for he and his family. That’s right. That’s Chris
Cannon! Can we give a round of applause to Chris?”
The crowd boos some more. Sienna
applauds as does Laura.
Sienna: “He finally realized that
I am worth protecting. Worth standing with. With supporting. You finally proved that I own your heart
and even though Kelcey may be deteriorating, we are a
team. A Perfect Team, with me lifting that mantle
higher than her imperfections ever could. And Chris, for
that, for your sacrifice. I’ve heard the attacks and slanders you’ve
received and trust me, I know exactly what you’re
going through. I stand with you Chris. You don’t owe Kennedy anything. You
don’t owe anyone an explanation. I know that when I see you, I see a man of
principles and one that recognized that I am looking out for you, just as you
are looking out for me. That’s what true love is.”
The crowd boos some more as
Sienna looks around.
Sienna: “And it’s all so I can
stand here with my message for all of you-“
Chris Cannon walks out from
the back, an annoyed look on his face. The crowd starts to make more noise. The
crowd roars with louder boos, while some cheer. Chris Cannon starts to make his
way down to the ring and down the rampway.
Sharper: “Chris Cannon on his
way.”
Knots: “Oh good. He’s going to
come out here and brood some more. Maybe piss some more people off. Come out
and just glare at Sienna.”
Sharper: “Sienna is speaking
the world of him. That’s what got everyone turn really turn. People believed he
was helping Sienna. Maybe he’ll set the record straight?”
Knots: “That would involve him
actually having a spine Sharper!”
Laura notices him and gets
Sienna’s attention. Sienna just turns to him and smiles.
Sienna: “Chris…you didn’t have
to come out here and prove it. Just…”
Chris hops onto the apron,
looking right at Sienna, an angry look on his face. Laura backs up as Sienna
looks around.
Sienna: “Now Chris…”
Chris steps into the ring. The boos continue before some start to turn to cheers.
Sienna: “Remember…you did all
of this for me…all of it. Don’t fight it…”
Sienna looks at Chris, looking
uncertain as Chris steps forward. Just then, Sienna cracks a smirk. Chris looks
at her as the crowd starts to boo. Chris then steps forward. Sienna leans in.
Sienna: “You did it all for
the people…”
Sienna smiles as Chris then
leans in and the two embrace with a kiss in the middle of the ring. The crowd
looks on, making noise, and many roar before booing comes from all over. Laura just smiles, almost laughing.
Knots: “I knew it! Kennedy
knew it! We knew it!”
Sharper: “I don’t believe it.”
Knots: “First she stole her
moniker and now she’s stolen Kelcey Wallace’s
husband! Well I guess shit always comes from the same place!”
Sharper: “Unbelievable…”
Sienna just laughs as she
turns to the camera. Chris Cannon smiling a bit now standing
next to her.
Sienna: “For the
people…Perfect, isn’t it?”
Sienna smirks as she drops the
microphone. The crowd boos as “Style” by Taylor Swift plays in the background.
Chris and Sienna stand in the ring as Laura just applauds as the scene slowly
fades to black…
